DRIVING INGENUITY,
POWERING FUTURES
Students design, build, and race ultra-efficient electric vehicles while gaining the skills, experience, and confidence needed to lead the future of energy, transportation, and technology.
TWO DIVISIONS. ONE COMPETITION.
From a student’s first race to an experienced builder chasing the next breakthrough, Electrathon offers a place on the grid for every kind of racer.
High School Division
High school teams come to the track to put their ideas, skills, and teamwork to the test, gaining the experience of building and racing an electric vehicle from the shop to the finish line.
Open Division
The Open Division is a place for individuals, college teams, and corporate teams to put their skills, vehicle, and competitive spirit to the test.
While the High School and Open Divisions offer different ways to compete, they share the same track, the same spirit of innovation, and the same Electrathon community.
