Team Profile:
Ecurie Aix, the Formula Student Team at RWTH Aachen University, was founded in 1999 as one of the first teams in Germany.
The name “Ecurie Aix” is a reference to the team´s international home base in the German city of Aachen, which lies right at the border to Belgium and the Netherlands. The word “Aix” is derived from Aachen´s French name: Aix-la-Chapelle. The word “Ecurie” means “Racing Stable” or “Racing Team” in French and has been chosen in respect to a very successful Belgian motorsports team named “Ecurie Francorchamps”.
Racing has a history in the region around Aachen – race tracks like the famous Nürburgring or Spa-Francorchamps are just a one-hour drive away.
The team has competed in Formula Student events in the US and Europe since 2002. After building ten cars with internal combustion engines, the team finally decided to switch to electric powertrains.
