About us

Formula Electric Belgium unites a group of motivated engineering students from campuses of KU Leuven University and Thomas More University College in Flanders, Belgium. The Formula project offers the team members a working environment which resembles to a realistic case, in which they have to apply all their technical and soft skills. Apart from enhancing these skills and bringing their education to a higher level, the practical goal of the project is to design, build and race an electric Formula Student race car. In the process, they are joined by several partners who help realizing the manufacturing of the car. After a year of development and manufacturing processes, the team will participate in several international events of the Formula Student competition. Formula Electric Belgium is not just a racing team. The project offers a platform in which technological partners can showcase and test their latest innovating developments. The team wants to share the acquired knowledge and experiences with other students by developing informative and educational packages to promote engineering technology and science with a focus on electrical mobility.

    Cooperation between universities and industry is essential. This makes even more sense for Sonaca when it comes to an innovative and green challenge like Formula Electric Belgium. For more than 10 years, Sonaca has been supporting the Formula Electric Belgium team in their quest for an ever greener and more efficient autonomous car. Encouraging and supporting these students in this ambitious project is really exciting. Each year, they aim to design, build and test an electric racing car in 9 months to compete in Formula Student competitions across Europe. Whether it is the materials, equipment, infrastructure and, above all, the time and valuable advice of the Sonaca teams, we are proud to contribute to the development of these young talents while promoting more environmentally friendly solutions. We are delighted to follow their adventures. Let's support innovation and knowledge transfer. #future #student #green #sustainable #composite

    🚗⚡ Samenwerking in actie: ZAVO en Formula Electric Belgium! We zijn trots op de samenwerking tussen onze leerlingen van 5 en 6 Mechanische Vormgevingstechnieken en Formula Electric Belgium (FEB)🎓🔧 Onze leerlingen dragen bij aan de ontwikkeling van een elektrische racewagen door onderdelen te produceren die rechtstreeks in het voertuig worden geïntegreerd. Een fantastische kans om praktijkervaring op te doen en zich voor te bereiden op verdere studies in een hoogtechnologische omgeving. Vandaag mochten we een kijkje nemen in de werkplaats van FEB. Onze leerlingen overhandigden persoonlijk hun werkstuk en zagen met eigen ogen waar hun bijdrage toe leidt. Een inspirerende ervaring die motiveert voor de toekomst! Bedankt Seppe Van Rossum voor de rondleiding! 💡 Samen bouwen we aan innovatie en techniek. #ZAVO #FormulaElectricBelgium #FEB #STEM #MVT

From 6 AM to midnight, we have been hard at work laminating our monocoque in a clean and professional environment. Beyond offering a top-notch workspace, Sonaca’s team has shared their invaluable expertise in composite manufacturing, enabling us to refine our processes and achieve remarkable results. Thank you, Sonaca, for being the foundation of our success and supporting us every step of the way. Your contribution is beyond measure! #formulastudent #sonaca #compositemanufacturing #gratitude #teamwork

  • A big thank you to 3A Composites Core Materials for their incredible support in providing high-quality balsa wood and AIREX® foam. These core materials are integral to reinforcing specific sections of our monocoque where maximum strength is required, especially for inserts. Their expertise and materials have been invaluable in building a chassis that meets our rigorous standards of performance and safety. Together, we are pushing the limits of innovation and engineering. Thank you, 3A Composites, for making this possible! 💪 #FormulaStudent #InnovativeMaterials #3AComposites #BalsaWood #AIREXFoam
