A team with

momentum

The Lafayette Motorsports Team is a division of the Lafayette College Electric Vehicle Club at Lafayette College, consisting of 3 subteams – mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical. Our main focus is developing a fully electric formula car to compete in the Formula Hybrid + Electric Competition (FH+E), often considered the most technically challenging undergraduate student competition sponsored by SAE. Our car, the LM0, has been in development for four years, and the 2025 FH+E competition was the first time Lafayette Motorsports passed all of the rigorous technical inspections, allowing us to compete in all dynamic events. This year, the team will be working to make LM0 even faster and more efficient for the 2026 competition, while also developing the design for the next generation racecar, LM1.
