CHASSIS
The main objectives of the chassis sub-team is to obtain optimal vehicle dynamic behaviour while retaining high standards for driver safety. Having the correct chassis set up, including brakes and steering, will be crucial in defining the characteristics of how the vehicle will handle and will allow Sussex Racing to chase excellent performance. Implementing the correct safety features is a large part of what the chassis sub-team do to protect the driver in the event of an incident.

Powertrain
The Powertrain team is tasked with designing and building an effective electric power system for the car. This covers both the mechanical features of the drivetrain and electrical aspects such as the motor and battery, with complex control systems coded through both the inverter and the ECU (electronic control unit). This will all need to be cooled due to the high voltage/ current in the unit, meaning health and safety is our main focus through the build process.
