Team Profile
“The “”Fastrada Motorsport formula student team”” from Karel de Grote Univeristy- College has taken a new approach on the environmentally friendly racecar by choosing for a hybrid drive train. We believe in a hybrid drive train by combining the performance of an electric motor with a combustion engine powered by an eco-friendly fuel to extend the driving range.
Through extensive interdisciplinary collaboration with students of various departments (Masters electronics, electro-mechanics, automotive and Bachelors automotive technology, IT, photography, …) our design is approached from many different point of views. This results in an optimization of the quality of our work.”
