Race for the $10 million Automotive X Prize starts at Michigan International ... AnnArbor.com

28.04.10

The X Prize Foundation , which has also created competitions in aerospace and biogenetics, is sanctioning its first automotive event. As title sponsor, Progressive Insurance has put up the prize money.

More than two dozen teams participated in today’s unscored stage at MIS. Officials from Consumers Union , the publisher of Consumer Reports, monitored the cars as they went through a series of safety checks and inspections. On track exercises determined if the cars met acceptable levels of maneuverability, acceleration and braking.

Power sources in competing cars run the gamut from battery-powered electric to gasoline-burning internal combustion engines. A team from Colorado is using a gasoline engine supplemented with hydrogen.

The Edison2 Very Light Car is powered by the 250-cubic-centimeter engine that Raetech developed at its facility near the Ann Arbor airport.

Raetech president David Finch said his staff of eight to 10 engineers worked part-time on the project over the last year.
