2022/23 Car

2022/23 was a big change for Dalhousie FSAE as we transitioned from an internal combustion engine to an all electric powertrain. This brought on some major design changes as we navigated the world of electric vehicle design. The car competed at Formula SAE in Michigan in spring of 2023
