DEPARTMENTS
The Composites department shapes the car’s outer design by balancing performance, efficiency and style. They design lightweight carbon fiber panels for the car as well as working together with aerodynamics to design the front, the diffuser, and the undertray.
They together focuses on optimizing airflow to reduce drag and increase downforce. They also work closely with Chassis to ensure the best performance.

The Operations department ensures the team’s long-term success off the track. They manage sponsorships, partnerships, budgets, and logistics.
Their work keeps the project sustainable and professional, turning engineering passion into a well-run organization.
The Chassis department designs and manufactures the structural foundation of the car. Using different materials and simulations, they create a rigid frame that supports all other systems.
Safety, stiffness, and integration with suspension and aerodynamics are top priorities, ensuring a strong backbone for performance and reliability.

Driver Interface focuses on bridges human interactions and mechanics. They develop all systems the driver interacts with, this includes the steering wheel and rack, pedals, seat, driver harness and parts of the dashboard.
Ergonomics, usability, and feedback are central to their design process, ensuring the driver has total control and confidence behind the wheel.

The low voltage department is what powers our race car, both literally and digitally. Due to the importance of this department, it is split into two — high-voltage and low-voltage.
The Low voltage team handles all the car’s control electronics and sensors. This includes designing car’s wiring harness and programming the controle units, ensuring reliable communication between every electronic subsystem. High Voltage is responsible for the heart of the car, the accumulator, inverter and motor.
They design and assemble the custom designed high-voltage battery pack and safety systems, with work covering everything from cell modeling and busbar design to testing and integration with the inverter and motor systems. Together they bridges hardware and software, integrating systems such as the inverter, motor, BMS, and telemetry into a single, reliable network.

The engine and tractive systems department work closely with the electrical department to transforms electrical energy into motion. They design, manufacture, and optimize components such as gear ratio, differentials, and driveshafts to transfer power from the motor to the wheels efficiently. With a focus on reliability and precision, they ensure that every newton-meter of torque is used effectively on track.

The suspension department could be considered one of the most important departments regarding the cars performance, since steering and motor power would be wasted if the wheels do not stay on the road. They ensures that all the power and grip reach the asphalt efficiently.
Their focus is designing and tuning the car’s suspension geometry, dampers, and steering systems to deliver optimal handling and stability. Their work involves both simulation and physical testing to achieve the perfect balance between comfort, control, and cornering performance.
