The Formula SAE Competition is an international collegiate design competition where teams design and build formula-style race cars. The cars are evaluated by a technical inspection, design and cost judging, a business logic scenario, and a series of driving events ending in an endurance race. During the 2020-21 academic year, the WPI FSAE team made the transition away from the combustion competition to the electric formula competition. The vehicle had to be designed from the ground up to incorporate an accumulator, an electric motor, and other tractive systems. The frame is completely redesigned in order to package all of these new components along with a driver. The team is using a two year build cycle in which the vehicle will be finished by the 2021-22 MQP team.
