Team Details

In an exciting and quite successful first season the TU Graz e-Power Racing Team demonstrated without any doubt that the innovative electric technology is able to compete with traditional petrol-engined racing cars. The biggest challenge in our previous season was the integration of an electric drivetrain into an existing chassis. For the current season we concentrated on a perfect placement of all components in our new chassis, for which we used a complete different production process. All of valuable experiences we gained last year influenced us a lot. Every component was analysed in terms of durability, efficiency and safety. Great value was placed on an advanced motor control to gain more power out of our batteries.Our whole team is looking forward to a new great season. Especially the fact of the increasing number of Formula Student Electric teams promises an exciting Formula Student event.

"Since the Graz University of Technology already has a highly successful Formula Student racing team, other ambitious students keen on developing a competitive electric racing car were easily found. The TU Graz e-Power Racing team was born.Our mission is to put our knowledge of electric automotive construction into practice and furthermore to highlight the benefits of zero-emission cars for the environment. We want to demonstrate that racing cars, constructed on the basis of the innovative electric technology, are without any doubt able to compete with traditional petrol-engined racing cars.
