The Formula Student Concept Challenge (FSCC 2025) is a virtual formula student competition that offers student teams the opportunity to conceptualize and design a Formula Student-style vehicle that complies with the Formula Bharat 2026 Rules booklet. It mirrors the static events and documentation phases of a typical Formula Student competition — but with a stronger focus on a team’s conceptual planning and design approach. Conducted entirely online, teams will submit technical documents and participate in design, procurement, and business presentations virtually, evaluated by experienced professionals from the industry and academia.
This challenge encourages teams to push their creativity and engineering knowledge to the limit—without the need to physically build the vehicle. It’s about vision, precision, and practical application of technical standards in a virtual setting.
Open to the Combustion and Electric Vehicle Categories!
FSCC 2025 is designed to:
- Encourage early-stage participation in Formula Student competitions
- Help teams understand the technical requirements set by Formula Student Events
- Foster skills in design planning, documentation, and virtual presentation
- Provide a platform for new and returning teams to sharpen their engineering mindset
