Team Profile

The FSB2015 is the 4th electric car made by the Formula Student Bizkaia Team.

The big innovation that resides in this car is that it is the first time the team manufactures a carbon fiber monocoque chassis. This big change meant that the whole team had to erase the previous concepts related to the manufacturing, and had to learn how to work in this new situation.

Apart from that, the team has made a big effort to make the rest of the systems as reliable as possible, making the electric powertrain the key feature of the car.

Another big innovation from the car is the new aramid fiber accumulator container, making it comply with the new rules regarding this crucial part of the car.

At last but not the least, the team has managed to implement an aluminum honeycomb impact attenuator reducing the weight of this component.

The final result is a great car, combining innovation and reliability, making the team confident in the mission of getting big results.
