Update #1!

October 18, 2017

Technical 

New methods for motor mounting and driveshaft designs are complete to reduce undesired vibrations and improve driver comfort. 

Currently, our team members are working towards having the vehicle fully functional by early-November. 

Communications

Recently, the team attended Fall Workshop, at MathWorks in Natick, MA. Team leadership returned and reiterated their confidence in the team's ability to have a very successful EcoCar 3 final competition.

The team recently had the opportunity to showcase the car at this year's VT vs. WVU football game that was held at FedEx Field. The Dean of the College of Engineering at Virginia Tech, Dean Ross, and fans alike, were all very vocal about their enthusiasm for the car.
