Improved CVT for Baja SAE Car
Problem statement
An engine is an incredible source of energy, so imagine not being able to extract that full potential. Acceleration is key to having a winning Baja SAE car, and having a CVT that is tuned specifically to the car and the terrain is a crucial part of that. We intend to give our client an optimized CVT that transmits engine power to the wheels, and is able to adapt to driving conditions all while keeping temperatures low, and avoiding component degradation. Our solution will become a dependable component of current and future Baja SAE cars at UW-Madison for years to come, creating a competitive advantage.
