Car manufacturer, Renault, has launched a competition to design the interior of the new 100% electric, two-seater Twizy. The competition is open to current Higher Education students, as well as Further Education students making the step-up this autumn. The top prize is paid tuition for a year.

The runner-up will win a weekend for two in Paris, with the third prize winner taking home £250 in French Connection vouchers. Renault will be visiting four campuses around the UK with a Twizy:

• University College London – Mon 13th February

• Birmingham City University – Tues 14th February

• Manchester Metropolitan University – Thurs 16th February

• University of Glasgow – Fri 17th February

Students throughout the UK are encouraged to visit www.designatwizy.co.uk to download a template of the car and let their creative juices flow. They have until 20th February to submit their designs for the Twizy and can enter as many times as they like in the hope of scooping one of three prizes. Full entry details, including terms and conditions, are available on the website. 

A Renault-appointed judging panel will whittle down all of the entries to find their top 10. It will then be up to the general public to cast their votes via Facebook to find the lucky winners who will be announced on 16th April 2012.
