Team Description
LiU Formula Student is a non-profit student association at Linköping University. Every year we develop and design a competition race car, which we afterwards take to Formula Student competitions all over Europe to compete against other universities from all around the globe. To achieve this, we cooperate closely with local industries as well as Linköping University. Right now we consist of about 100 students, both at bachelor level as well as master level, from several different programs and grades.

LiU Formula Student presents ER26 — our sixth electric race car, built by 130 students at Linköping University, Sweden. ER26 features a single rear-mounted Axial Flux Emrax 228 HV motor delivering 124 kW through a chain-and-sprocket drivetrain with a torque-sensitive LSD. A 7.8 kWh NMC accumulator at 600 V feeds a DTI HV 550 controller. Fully self-designed electronics, aerodynamic bodywork, and a refined suspension setup make ER26 our most complete package yet.
