Team 2026 -

Project Management

The backbone of the team. They are responsible for overall management and organization of the project. The key changes as well as as the most crucial developments in the team are decided by them, to ensure that the project is feasible, rules-compliant and kept within the budgets.

Aerodynamics

The aerodynamics team develops the undertray, the adjustable front and rear wings and the side wings. The aim is to guide the air around the components in the best possible way. With narrow circuits and a maximum speed of 120 km/h, their main focus lies on maximizing downforce.

Autonomous Systems

The autonomous systems team replaces the driver with sensors, algorithms and electrical control. Among other things, a 360° LiDAR sensor records the state of the environment. With mapping algorithms such as SLAM or state estimation, the system derives the exact position on the race track. This then calculates the best racing line. The controller then processes the data in real time and reproduces it as steering movements and driving force on the wheels.

Chassis

The chassis team develops and produces a carbon monocoque. There are many requirements from safety, ergonomics, aerodynamics, and other teams to consider. A lot of attention is also paid towards the drivers. Their needs for comfort are best met by adjusting the racing seat, seating position, pedals and shift paddles.

Electronics

The low voltage system is provided by the electronics team. Sensor data is recorded by the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and sent to the PC through WiFi and LTE in real time as telemetry data. The Vehicle Dynamic Control System operates simultaneously in the ECU and carries out tasks like torque vectoring for the best handling in tight turns and slide control for maximum traction.

E-Powertrain

The whole electric driving system is handled by the E-Powertrain team. The electrical energy is provided by a lithium-ion battery that we built ourselves. The four wheel hub motors are powered by inverters with SiC Mosfets that were also developed in-house.

Management & Communications

The Management & Communications team is responsible for most of the organizational aspects of the car. Our key tasks include teamwear design and distribution, marketing and website management, overall team logistics and organizing events. Additionally, we manage communication between the team and sponsors.

Suspension

The Suspension team aims to position and move the tires within their optimal operating range. A key factor of this is defining the vehicle’s overall kinematics, which determines the possible movements and force distribution throughout the car. Furthermore there is a strong focus on the wheel package itself, specifically on developing a lightweight highly integrated system that houses an e-machine and a gearbox in each wheel.

Vehicle Dynamics

The Vehicle Dynamics team is optimizing car and driver performance by means of simulation and data analysis. This involves designing the suspension kinematics as well as finding the ideal car setups for varying track conditions. Their responsibilities also include developing the car’s control systems, such as Traction Control and Torque Vectoring.

Structures and Materials

The Structures and Materials team designs lightweight components for optimal performance, reliability, and durability. We conduct material testing and structural simulations, including NVH, multibody, and composite analyses, to refine parts for efficient manufacturing and use.

Statics

The Statics Team is responsible for creating the Bill of Material as well as the Business Plan event and calculating the costs and carbon emission equivalent with our selfdeveloped calculation models. In addition we throughly analyse the whole manufacturing process of our racecar focusing on a wide range of management and production topics.
