The Competition
Budding young designers are invited to create an environmental-themed wrap for an electric van – with the winning design to be unveiled at the MotoFest Coventry festival.
The competition is being launched by E.ON Drive, in partnership with MotoFest Coventry, and will offer pupils from schools in the Coventry and Warwickshire region the opportunity to create a new design for one of E.ON Drive’s electric van fleet.
Age categories
There will be four age categories for the van wrap design competition:
- Key Stage 1 (school years 1-2)
- Key Stage 2 (school years 3-6)
- Key Stage 3 (school years 7-9)
- Key Stage 4 (school years 10-11)
Prizes
Individual prizes, including goody bags, are on offer for each competition category winner. 2nd and 3rd prize entries from each category will also receive a goody bag.
The overall winner, chosen from the four category winners, will have their design wrapped onto the van and unveiled at the E.ON Drive exhibition stand at the MotoFest Coventry festival weekend on 3 and 4 June, 2023. There will also be a prize-giving ceremony for the four individual winners, including a photo with the special guest Veloce Racing driver.
How to enter
As part of the competition launch activity, an E.ON Drive van design template – featuring a 360-degree representation of the van – will be given to participating schools to hand out to pupils to use for the individual competition entries. If your school is not participating and you want to enter, click on the button below to download the template.
The overall competition theme is based around the environment, nature and sustainability, with the winning designs to be judged on how well they reflect these core competition themes.
Alongside the core competition themes, the design should also feature electric vehicles or sustainable forms of transport, use realistic imagery rather than abstract concepts or designs and utilise bright and vibrant colour schemes.
Entries can be taken to the Tourist Information booth by Coventry Train Station or emailed to: competition@coventrymotofest.com. Please include the information below on the back of the template or in the email.

“We are delighted to support E.ON Drive, our new event partner, with their new van design wrap competition.
“It’s an incredible opportunity for school pupils to create an environmentally themed van wrap design that will not only be showcased at MotoFest Coventry but continue to be seen throughout its service as one of E.ON Drive’s fully sustainable fleet of electric vans.
“We look forward to seeing the creativity and imagination of Coventry and Warwickshire pupils produce a captivating and memorable design that wows both the MotoFest audience and the Coventry and Warwickshire public long after the festival weekend.”
James Noble, MotoFest Coventry Festival Director
