About MECar

A whole car, from the first sketch to the track

MECar is a student racing club in Yonsei University's College of Engineering. Our members choose a concept, design and analyze the car, source and make parts, assemble it, and test it.

Each member owns part of the vehicle. Every part has to work with the rest.

Mechanical, electrical and operations members work together through the full build. We study what happens on track, then bring those lessons into the next car. Members from different years and majors can join the work.

Our vehicles

Baja and Formula

Two different cars, built by the same team.

Formula / 2027

Our first Formula car

Formed in 2026, the Formula team is defining the car's layout and architecture from the ground up. The work brings together chassis, suspension, steering, brakes, powertrain, electrical systems, frame and aerodynamics. We aim to debut at Formula Student Korea in 2027.
