From our inception, Team GigaWatt has continually pushed the boundaries of electric vehicle design and performance. Each generation of our cars represents significant innovations in technology, performance, and sustainability. Scroll down to explore the evolution of our Formula Student vehicles.
Formula Bharat 2025
Tubular Spaceframe chassis reduces weight by 15% compared to previous models while increasing structural integrity.
Custom Battery Pack with cell balancing and thermal management improves efficiency and extends battery life.
Optimized handling package generates great handling characteristics and improves drivability
Custom-developed Electronics system with multiple custom PCBs optimizes performance and safety across varying conditions.
GigaWatt 1.0 represents the culmination of our team's experience and innovations. Development began in November 2022, with a focus on improving power-to-weight ratio and overall efficiency. Our interdisciplinary team spent over 8,000 hours designing, manufacturing, and testing this vehicle.
Through extensive simulation and prototype testing, we achieved a 20% increase in overall performance compared to our previous model. Key improvements include a redesigned powertrain, enhanced energy recovery system, and advanced composite materials for structural components.
The car underwent rigorous testing at the BITS Pilani Goa Campus proving grounds, covering more than 500 km in various test scenarios before competition readiness.
