Car #65
Info
95x
Based in Melbourne, Australia, Monash Motorsport consists of 100+ undergraduate students operating as one team responsible for both an IC and EV car. 2018 will mark the first time Monash competes overseas in both classes, with the goal to maximise the sum of points across the two vehicles. As Monash’s first EV car, M17-E features shared components with its twin, allowing for the prioritisation of testing and tuning the new electrical systems to ensure a consistent and high performing package.
