Team Description

Since the Academic Motorsports Club Zurich (AMZ) was founded in 2006 by students of ETH Zurich it has produced a prototype to compete in various Formula Student competitions in Europe every year. After having built three cars powered by combustion engines, AMZ has moved forward to developing electric racing cars since 2010. Throughout the years, we have continuously been at the top of innovation, not only developing new CFRP monocoques, complete aerodynamics packages and suspension but also designing our own motors, gearbox and controllers. As a result, AMZ’s twelfth car - eiger - captivates with innovation through and through. It is the result of more than eight months of development time, countless sleepless nights and the single intention of a team to be successful through innovation.

The association is financially independent and supported by numerous financial, manufacturing and parts sponsors as well as various institutes of Swiss universities ETH Zurich and the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts. AMZ is the first Swiss team in Formula Student. The active team counts approximately 40 people, backed by the crucial support of their alumni. In 2017, AMZ finished the season at the top of FSE rankings.

We look forward to competing with the whole Formula Student Community this summer with our 14th car alvier.
