TU Dortmund University’s GET Racing Team designs, develops, and builds electric-powered race cars for the Formula Student international design competition.
In each season, around 40 students work on producing a full-fledged vehicle for the competition in accordance with the rules. The competition between 22 different countries is held during the summer months. In general, the Dortmund team takes part in two to three events within Europe.
