FS FEUP is a team, based at the University of Porto, of around 60 students.
The team’s Mission Statement is: “To foster students’ self-development, by providing them with the chance to be part of something bigger together, by developing Formula Student-spec prototypes – resulting in career-ready people.“
The team comprises students from various engineering branches such as mechanical, electronic, informatics, and other courses.

“The team’s first cycle feats, which culminated by competing with the team’s first EV prototype, were a success thanks to all our sponsors and institutional partners. The team is now transitioning into the next phase, where a new, more innovative and state-of-the-art racing prototype will be designed and built. This prototype will feature autonomous-driving capabilities and the team will continue working hard to ensure it is another step in the right direction.
