About Event

Baja SAE INDIA is a national level competition that simulates real-world engineering design projects and their related challenges. Engineering students are tasked to design, build, test and race a single-seated off-road vehicle that will survive the severe punishment of rough terrain.

Students design the Baja car as if it is a prototype for a company, so cost, appearance, reliability, and performance all become key factors in judging. Rule guidelines place restrictions on the engine and frame, testing the imagination, knowledge, and creativity of the students.

Competition is divided into 3 parts -

Static Events

Students describe in detail the methods used to design the car, and covers all car systems from Chassis to Safety. Safety/Technical inspections also take place

Dynamic Events

Involve tests such as acceleration, suspension/traction, hill climbing and land and water manoeuvrability.

Endurance Race

The highlight of the competition which lasts typically 4 hours or 100 miles. A track with a wide variety of natural and man-made obstacles is specially created for the size and speed of a typical Baja car.
