Welcome to the University of Ottawa Supermileage webpage. You can read about the vehicle, meet the team and hopefully help us out with sponsorship.
History
We are a small team of engineering students at the University of Ottawa that design and build ultra fuel efficient race vehicles. The team was founded in 2008 in order to satisfy the need to apply knowledge gained in the classroom to real life problems. We enter our vehicle annually in international fuel efficiency competitions for motivation and perpetual improvement.
About the Competition
The purpose of the competitions is to design and build the most fuel-efficient race vehicle. The vehicles must be powered by an internal combustion engine running on gasoline.
Progress
We just returned from Marshall, Michigan and took home second place with a fuel economy of 1496mpg. We are currently fixing a fuel leak and fine tuning the vehicle in order to do some trial runs at a local race track.
You can follow along with the progress at our following pages.
