The Advanced Snowmobile Team is composed of five main sub-teams, each specializing in different aspects of design and innovation. The SI Team focuses on projects related to our spark ignition snowmobile, optimizing performance and efficiency. The Hybrid Team works on developing a next-generation hybrid snowmobile. This machine combines a traditional internal combustion engine with an electric motor to improve fuel efficiency, reduce emissions, enhance acceleration, and minimize environmental impact. The Chassis Team supports both snowmobiles by improving noise control, optimizing track and driver performance, and ensuring seamless integration of the chassis with the hybrid motor. The Electrical Team manages all instrumentation, wiring, sensors, and troubleshooting of electrical systems. Finally, our Business Team oversees budgeting, finances, sponsor relations, and overall resource management to keep the team running smoothly.
