Our 2026 entrant, T37 represents our 15th electric vehicle, 5th year of AWD, and our first driverless car. In the last three years at FSAE, we have won Endurance and AutoX and placed 3rd, 8th, and 5th respectively. University of Washington is proud to be one of the few teams from the United States to have a history of competing at FSG in the combustion era. Our team is now looking to revitalize that history after our first EV appearance last year. We aim to complete all events this year.

Returning to FSG, University of Washington Formula Motorsports is the sole U.S. team this season. Our husky spirit placed us 1st in Endurance at Formula SAE Michigan last year and 3rd overall the year before, and with 36 years of design evolution under our T36 car, we're proud to represent fearless engineering internationally. This year, we're targeting strategic redesigns with a cautious optimism from previous limitations, looking forward to building our most innovative car yet!
