The fourth edition of the international « Shell Eco-Marathon Americas » competition will take place in March at the Discovery Green park, in Houston (Texas). Over 40 teams from half a dozen different countries will be represented in the different categories (solar, hydrogen, ethanol, gasoline). We will be participating in the largest category: internal combustion engines.
The SAE Supermileage student competition is held by the renowned Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). It is essentially the same type of competition as the Shell Eco-Marathon, except for a few technical regulations. This challenge attracts roughly 40 competing universities and is held every year in June, at Marshall, in Michigan.
