BARCELONA SMARTMOTO CHALLENGE

Abstract

In this paper we present the rules of the first edition of the SMARTMOTO CHALLENGE, www.smartmotochallenge.org . It will take place during the 2012-2013 season, showing the vehicles in July 2013 at the ParcMotor of Igualada and in Barcelona City. This is a competition of an electric motorcycle development where students, from participating universities, must make an electric motorcycle in accordance with the rules that we expose here. Following the successful example in the automotive industry with the Formula SAE, started in the USA, and now in full expansion in Europe with the Formula Student, we want to launch an Spanish but international competition oriented to the light electrical bikes. As the conference will be immediately after the event, we will also present real final results of it.
