“Innovation meets Tradition” – if you look at Zwickau’s automotive history you can easily find out why we picked out this slogan for our team.
Zwickau is the birth place of Horch and Audi, and furthermore in the 1930s, it was the domicile of the Auto Union race cars which dominated the race tracks in Europe. Almost 70 years later our WHZ Racing Team was founded. Now in 2016, we bring our seventh full electric car to the tracks. The FPX16e is a further development of last year’s successful car, concentrating on lightweight, packaging and reliability. We created a fast and dynamic car with four independent motors, improved aerodynamics and self-developed electronic components.
