Last Friday, Aztec Electric Racing proudly unveiled AER24! We want to thank our sponsors, team members, and the faculty at SDSU College of Engineering and SDSU Research Foundation for their support. AER24 comes with several impressive upgrades: a 5-inch reduction in wheelbase, a 50 lbs weight reduction, and a brand new battery design with a fully custom battery management system. We are excited to test AER24 at the Formula Hybrid+Electric competition later this month. Thanks again to everyone who made this possible! #fsae #formulastudent #formulafsae #sdsu #engineering #racecar
