Rutgers Solar Car✓ Verified

With over 100 students across more than 10 distinct disciplines, Rutgers Solar Car is working hard on our new Single Occupant Vehicle (SOV), Hyperion, for entry into the American Solar Challenge (ASC) 2026. The Mechanical team is responsible for all of the car's core mechanical systems, including the chassis, brakes, and suspension. It designs the chassis to provide a robust structure and secure mounting points for the vehicle, and to ensure driver safety and vehicle control, conducts extensive simulations and testing. The Electrical team is responsible for everything from the solar array to the telemetry systems and all components in between. It designs, installs, and wires the electrical systems required to power and operate RSC's solar-electric vehicles, ensuring it functions efficiently from start to finish. The Aerodynamics team designs and manufactures the car's exterior aerobody. Its primary goal is to create a lightweight, high-performance structure. To achieve this, the team utilizes composite materials—a blend of substances that ensures the aerobody is both light and strong, optimizing the car’s overall performance.
