Beyond the Rules - Contest on the evolution of the Formula SAE Italy rules
From the beginning to nowadays, FSAE Italy rules evolved over time in line with the automotive sector technological advancements, hosting since the first edition, in 2005, alternative fuel cars: hybrid, electric, fuel cell vehicles.
Then a real Formula Electric Italy was consolidated and, starting from 2018, the Formula Driverless Italy was introduced, both still an integral part of the event and often the scene of interesting design ideas.
The evolution of the automotive and of motorsport has never stopped and now it is accelerating. The challenge to reduce the environmental impact of mobility, especially in terms of pollutant and climate-changing emissions and in terms of vehicles energy efficiency, in fact, pushes towards further technological frontiers, which concern propulsion systems and aerodynamics, as well as the use of new materials and new production processes.
In order to try something new and challenge oneself and to make FSAE Italy more and more stimulating and up to date, students are invited to draw a 2025 FSAE Italy Rules draft, proposing current and feasible technological solutions and taking into account all possible propulsions and categories of participation.
A Jury made up of FSAE Italy experts will judge the projects and will reward the winner.
