OUR CARS
As of 2024, we have designed and manufactured 27 race cars. The designs have gone through many iterations since 1997. We started with a combustion car with a steel space-frame chassis, and UBR27, our most recent car, was an electric vahicle with a carbon monocoque. We transitioned to an electric powertrain in 2021, and although this was a difficult transition, we have been improving our EV design since.

'The Engine Room'Our Alumni
As one of the oldest Formula Student teams in the UK, we have many alumni who have gone on to do great things. We have had alumni go to work at many Formula 1 teams including Redbull, Mercedes, Mclaren, Aston Martin and Williams. The team has good connections with our alumni and they visit the team often, for example by coming to our design review and car launch.
