Abstract
This paper presents the procedure followed in order to design the first Formula Student race car of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. Despite the restrictions imposed by the Formula SAE rules, the designer has a broad range of freedom in creativity and innovativeness. The design concept of the main vehicle parts, such as the frame and the suspension, is described and the design objectives and assumptions are analysed. The paper also focuses on several new features regarding the suspension adjustments, the steering system, and the engine modifications. Following this procedure, it was made possible to build a competitive and reliable car in a period of just 9 months.
