e-gnition is the Formula Student Electric Team of the TU Hamburg.
Founded in may 2011, we built a new electric car every year. The egn16 is the fifth car of the team.

The car has a full carbon fibre monocoque and uses two Enstroj Emrax 208 motors along with self designed motor controller housings and cooling. The low voltage system is completely self designed, including circuit boards, onboard computer, DC/DC converter etc.
The focus of this season was on reliability and love. The team members are building the car exclusively in their free time, in return they get love and fun but no credit points or money. So we decided to make the benefits as big as possible and we tried to love our mates as much as we can. We also built a very reliable car to rush trough the scrutineering and take all dynamic events to the end. See you on the podium.
