The Olympiad aims to create awareness about the automotive industry among students and to showcase their skills, creativity, and innovation in a competitive environment, which can help them develop important skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, and teamwork.

It will be a hybrid event, with the first two stages conducted online, followed by the finals in Delhi and participants should be willing to travel for the finals." 

"There is no age restriction for students in the specified classes. Participants can register for free through the official website www.asdc.org.in/nao. The medium of instruction will be in English and Hindi, ensuring accessibility for all participants, " he added.

"The results of the first stage of the National Automobile Olympiad will be announced in November, with ASDC unveiling the winners in December and winners will be recognized by cash prizes, certifications, and an International study tour. Students and schools are encouraged to grab this opportunity to participate in the Olympiad and contribute to the growth and awareness of the automotive industry. Additionally, all participating schools will receive a certificate of participation" said the ASDC CEO.
