The egn20 is the most innovative and forward-thinking car e-gnition has ever build. In the coming years FSG is looking to integrate driverless technology into every car participating in the event. We decided to start this integration one year early. The egn20 is able to run EV and with a quick change of the steering wheel and front wing it is capable to drive DV as well. The steering actuation is fully integrated into the steering wheel and easily exchangeable with a quick release.
Engineering Design Priorities:
Driverless integration
Reliability
Battery Management System
Low center of gravity
Validation
Wing inner structure

For the third time in a row the egn19-dv will enter the glowing asphalt of the Hockenheimring. After last year's extensive hardware and software conversion, the focus this season is on software optimizations. The two additional LIDARs, which increase the lateral field of vision of the racing car, also ensure better performance. For his last season, "Horst" has undergone another optical makeover and will not only look great on but also off the track.

"Horst" was built in 2017 and took part in several competitions this year. It is our first all-wheel drive vehicle and was able to complete the Endurance in FSE17. After this eventful year Horst decided that it was time to take the next step. So he returned to our workshop for a few months to complete his transformation. With new skills and the newest drivers, he wants to face the challenges of the race track alone. But Horst, we will always sit on the grandstand and send our support and love.

Many Formula Student veterans made a return to the team to take on this fascinating new challenge. Together with some newly found teammates we turned "Uwe", our very reliable last year's car, the egn16, into the egn_dv17. Giving it a bunch of new sensors and actuators as well as a lot of additional processing power, "Uwe" will face his new task. We can't wait to see all the different approaches the teams have taken to make their FS car drive autonomously!
