Team Profile:

Formula UEM is a multidisciplinary team compound by around 80 students of Universidad Europea de Madrid. Our people belong to different schools, many of us are mechanical, electrical or civil engineers, others are from the arts & architecture departments, whereas for our community management we rely on business administration and journalism students.

Our team is divided in 7 sub teams including Powertrain, Suspensions, Bodywork, Aerodynamics, Electronics, Chassis and Press & Sponsorships. We work daily together involving each of our members in a complete workshop experience, in which quality and teamwork are the mottos. Improvement and innovation is what motivates us to go beyond the frontiers.

Banco Santander is our main sponsor. Following, we proudly count with national and international companies such as SKF, Honda, Tire Consortion, Loctite, TexTreme, WD-40, Axon, RS, i-Alpe, Fiberflight, Roberlo, Wera, Sodexo and so many more. Their collaboration and support have been vital and can be appreciated on the vehicle performance.

Additional Information

The main team objectives that have determined our design are reliability, lightness and affordability, never refusing to supply as many driving facilities as possible. All team members are committed to the objectives in every step they take.

Carbon fibre is the material of our bodywork and many other parts such as the seat or wheels. We are known in our campus because of the manufacturing experience acquired and recently we have participated in the Laureate Award for Excellence in Robotics Engineering by making the case of a guidance robot.
