The SOLERO Rover

SOLERO (Solar-powered Exploration Rover) is the name of a rover built in a study carried out jointly by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, and von Hoerner & Sulger GmbH (vH&S), Germany, under a contract from the European Space Agency (ESA). The objective of this activity was to develop a system design for a regional exploration rover, including breadboarding for the demonstration of locomotion capabilities, payload accommodation, power provision and control.
