Full power for maximum performance: the UPBracing team at Paderborn University has reached a new milestone thanks to interdisciplinary collaboration between various departments. On Friday, 9 May, the team will present its new electric racing car "PX425E" in the university's Audimax, bringing the result of months of work to the stage. Admission is from 4 pm, the presentation starts at 5 pm. Registration is required by 30 April and should be sent to: info@formulastudent.upb.de.

The "PX425E" is already the fifth electric racing car developed by the UPBracing team. After a phase of further development and construction, the members have been working on the new racing car since January of this year. The aim is to make it lighter and more efficient. This is followed by a test phase and events in which teams from all over the world compete against each other. The UPBracing team traditionally takes part in three events per season. This year, the decision was made in favour of events in the Netherlands (FSN), Poland (FSP) and Italy (FSATA).

The rollout gives interested parties from science, business and motorsport the opportunity to experience the new racing car up close, talk to the UPBracing team members and find out more about the project. Students and school pupils are also cordially invited. Catering will be provided on the evening of the event.
