Meet the team for CR-30: Powertrain

Our Powertrain subsystem took on one of the biggest challenges in team history this year in developing and running our first-ever EV system. After years of groundwork and development, they successfully brought the team’s first electric drivetrain to life.

We’re excited to see them continue refining the system and building a strong foundation for CR-30 and the years ahead.

Meet the team for CR-30: Chassis

Our chassis subsystem had a huge year from a complete redesign, to building a brand new mold, to overcoming challenges along the way to create our final product. We’re incredibly thankful for all of the hard work this group put in, along with everyone who stepped in to help make this chassis a success.

Follow along to see what they accomplish for CR-31!

We’re excited to share a huge milestone for our team; our first electric vehicle is up and running!

It’s taken countless hours from a dedicated group of students working through setbacks to get to this point.

Still plenty of work ahead, but we’re proud to see it drive. Thank you to everyone who’s supported us along the way!
