The FS team of the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi) is a group of 28 budding undergraduate students committed to experiencing high end automotive design and engineering. Members of the IIT Delhi team, AXLR8R, add a new dimension to their engineering knowledge and expertise during the practical application of their theoretical knowledge in such a project.

Most of the components have been fabricated and subsequently assembled in our workshops which could never have been possible without the appreciable support of our faculty advisor and IIT Delhi staff. Being in a country like India, availability of resources was our foremost concern and accordingly we had to even compromise on material selection for different components.

We have made an effort to enhance the viability of design aspects and consequently various new features were introduced like:

·         Anti roll bars

·         Adjustable Brake Assembly

·         Customised Muffler and Rack & Pinion Assembly

·         Chassis prototype

The above mentioned advancements ensure better stability and work efficiency. We can only expect that the remarkable design will lead us to success in our endeavor.
