Aztec Electric Racing (AER) is a collegiate engineering team from San Diego State University that designs, manufactures, and races a Formula-style electric vehicle in the annual FSAE EV competition.
Now over 200 members strong.
We bring together students from diverse majors and disciplines, providing hands-on experience, technical expertise, and real-world skills that prepare them to excel in the engineering workforce and beyond.
9 Cars.
One Mission.
AER-26
Unequal double wishbone geometry, a Drexler V3 LSD, and a liquid-cooled EMRAX 208 powertrain driving the rear wheels through a 4.7:1 chain drive. Competing at FSAE Michigan June 2026.
AER-25
Building upon AER-24’s success — a completely redesigned aerodynamic package, revised suspension geometry, and our most powerful accumulator yet. AER-25 competed at FSAE Michigan 2025 as car #230.
