CIRCE Collaborates in the '5th Edition of MOTOSTUDENT' at Motorland Aragón
Last week, the Technopark at Motorland hosted the fifth edition of MotoStudent, a biennial international competition aimed at university students, with the goal of enhancing theoretical knowledge but, more importantly, practical skills related to R&D&I in the automotive sector.
After a year and a half of work, the 74 teams and approximately 1,500 students participating in MotoStudent subjected their prototypes to the various tests and evaluations established by the competition over several days.
CIRCE collaborated in the evaluation of these tests, focusing on both the technical specifications of the vehicle and its dynamic performance, with special emphasis on the "Electric" category, which is based on a 100% electric vehicle prototype.
Additionally, several researchers from the center were part of the jury in the Technological Innovation category to assess the prototypes' compliance with the competition requirements.
CIRCE also participated in the technical talks held on Saturday to discuss and debate various aspects related to mobility.
CIRCE's session provided an opportunity to highlight the characteristics of inductive charging and how it can boost electric mobility.
