Tata Motors will support IIT Bombay Racing Team as the official automotive partner, in rolling out Orca – the fastest Indian electric race car, developed by IIT Bombay Racing Team. Faster than many other International sports cars, Orca, a special Make-in-India initiative, is a culmination of eight years of hard work by the IIT Bombay Racing Team, with the vehicle capable of reaching maximum speeds of 145+ kmph, with accelerations of 0-100 kmph in just 3.47 seconds.
ORCA will race in Formula Student (FS), UK in July 2016, the international parallel of Formula One at the engineering college level and Europe's most established educational motorsport competition, run by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Backed by industry and high profile engineers such as Ross Brawn OBE, the competition aims to inspire and develop enterprising and innovative young engineers. Universities from across the globe are challenged to design and build a single-seat racing car in order to compete in static and dynamic events, which demonstrate their understanding and test the performance of the vehicle.
IIT Bombay Racing is an independent student organization in IIT Bombay, comprising of 80 students with a formal 3-tier team system structure spread across 8 engineering disciplines and united by a common ambition of being at the forefront of the global student motorsport.
