Welcome to FRUCD — designing, building and racing electric race cars since 2012 🏎️💙.
About us
Formula SAE Electric is a design and engineering challenge for university students designed and run by the Society of Automotive Engineers. The goal of the competition is to design and build an open-wheel, single-seat, electric racecar conforming to a stringent set of rules, which emphasize drivetrain innovation, safety, and energy efficiency in a high-performance application. Our team’s cost, design, and strategic positioning decisions are made to take into account the interests and requirements of a weekend autocross racer. These decisons are then presented to a panel of industry professionals in the business presentation.

FRUCD makes a comeback at FSAE EV Michigan! For the first time since 2019, FE11 passed all technical inspections and competed in all four dynamic events. While a BSPD fault cut our endurance event short and caused a DNF, we are extremely proud of how much we improved in just one year. Last year we placed 60th out of 61 teams at competition. This year, we are thrilled to announce that we placed 22nd out of 79 teams! Thank you so much to all our sponsors, advisors, and team for your unwavering support. We can't wait to come back stronger and better next year ♥ Here is a rundown of our final placements at the competition: Overall: 22nd Design: 34th Cost: 6th Business: 38th Acceleration: 17th Skidpad: 13th Autocross: 7th #formula1 #fsae #fsaemichigan #fsaeelectric #ucdavis #ucdavisengineering #studentteam
