The Expedition
Chasing the Sun
Dwayne Fields is undertaking a round-the-world expedition in a custom-built, self-enclosed solar-powered electric vehicle — turning a global adventure into a powerful story of innovation and possibility.
- Extreme climates, varied terrain and major logistical challenges will test engineering, endurance and storytelling under real-world conditions.
- A journey designed to test both the technology and the people behind it.
- A working demonstration of what solar and electric technology can do.
The Approach
55 Countries, Many More Stories
Fifty-five countries, six continents and everything that happens in between!
People
Connecting with communities and sharing a variety of traditions, perspectives and insight along the way.
Culture
Markets, music, food, festivals. Whatever is happening that week, in whatever town the road leads to.
Adrenaline
Dunes, river crossings and mountain switchbacks, and the chance to throw himself off, out of or into whatever the country is famous for.
Stories
Stories spanning the globe; adventure, encounters and moments shaped by the people, the places and the journey.
