    The document compares the design of an old Baja SAE car to a new design for the 2018 competition. It summarizes the key changes made in several systems. The roll cage was improved by increasing driver cockpit length and eliminating extra members. The rear suspension was changed to a semi-trailing arm design for easier construction and assembly. The steering system was altered to have a higher wheelbase and lower torque with positive caster for more stability. The braking system now uses three discs and smaller calipers with proper bleeding. The powertrain was tuned for better vibration damping and uses stronger materials. Driver comfort was also emphasized with an increased cockpit length and prioritization of safety in egress. Wiring and cables were

    Slide No. 1
    Roll cage
    Previous Year’s Design: New Design:

    Cost of Material Driver’s Cockpit Length is increased

    Bending was inaccurate Extra Members are eliminated, Bending


    is done more accurately

    Slide No. 2 # Teams need to explain it in detail.


    Suspension
    Previous Year’s Design: New Design:

    Double wishbone in rear & front damper No Change in front suspension, Semi
    mounted to lower wishbone trailing arm is used in rear

    Rebound Response in rear wishbone was Easy Construction & Easy assembling of
    not more Half Shaft

    Slide No. 3 # Teams need to explain it in detail.


    Steering
