This grant provides support for the FutureTruck Challenge. This competition is jointly sponsored by the NSF, the Department of Energy and the automotive industry in support of the Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles (PNGV) program. It has the goal of designing and competing commercially producible vehicles in the range of sport utility vehicles to trucks that are simultaneously comfortable, safe, roadable, commercially viable, and highly fuel efficient. Under this competition, a number of universities compete annually in this event. The award provides funding to support the competition and to offset costs for expenses such as team prizes, communication and safety equipment rentals and other competition expenses.

这笔赠款为未来之旅挑战赛提供支持。本次比赛由美国国家科学基金会、能源部和汽车行业联合主办，以支持新一代汽车伙伴关系(PNGV)计划。它的目标是设计和竞争各种可商业生产的车辆，包括运动型多功能车(SUV)和同时具有舒适性、安全性、可路性、商业可行性和高燃油效率的卡车。在这项比赛中，许多大学每年都会在这项赛事中展开竞争。该奖项提供资金以支持比赛，并抵消团队奖金、通信和安全设备租赁和其他比赛费用等费用。
