The PWR Racing Team constructors have unveiled their thirteenth Formula Student class car. The vehicle uses electric propulsion and autonomous driving systems. It will soon be possible to see if the improvements made this year will allow it to repeat its racing successes.
The PWR Racing Team is a team of talented and ambitious students from the Wrocław University of Technology, who have set themselves the goal of building a new Formula Student class car every year. The RT13e is the thirteenth vehicle they have created, the second with electric drive and autonomous driving systems. In its design work, the PWR Racing Team uses the latest technological solutions. In doing so, it takes an innovative approach to building the bolide, using 3D printing, among other things. The vehicle was completed on time and its first ceremonial demonstration took place in June 2023. It willsoon be able to prove itself on European Formula Student circuits.
The premiere of the RT13e car, which draws on the latest technology, is an expression of the ambition, perseverance and innovation of the PWR Racing Team design team. These are values that are also important to Endego. Therefore, we are happy to support its young creators, congratulate them on achieving their goals and keep our fingers crossed for further success. As a sponsor, we are delighted to have been able to contribute to the creation of this remarkable machine.
An electric motor is only one component of a vehicle’s e-drive system. Efficiency, range, performance and durability depend on the combined operation of the motor, inverter, battery, battery management system (BMS), cooling system, transmission, control software and mechanical integration. Electric powertrain development should therefore address the complete system and the vehicle’s real operating profile from the outset.

The transaction allows Endego to sharpen its focus on engineering and digitalization services for customers in the mobility and industrial sectors.
