Rimac Innovation Challenge – FSAA 2026
Rimac Innovation Challenge — Official Rules and Framework (FSAA)
Rimac Innovation Challenge Topics
Seating systems in hypercars and ultra-luxury vehicles must simultaneously deliver extreme performance support, long-distance comfort, safety integration, and premium craftsmanship. Future seating systems are expected to evolve into intelligent mechatronic platforms capable of adapting dynamically to occupant behaviour, driving conditions, and wellness requirements.
Aerodynamic performance is one of the strongest differentiators of a modern hypercar. It governs top speed, high-speed stability, downforce-limited cornering, braking confidence and thermal management. Today, active aerodynamics in production hypercars is implemented almost exclusively through discrete moving elements: rear wings on linear actuators, deployable flaps, movable splitters, and active air-brakes. These elements work, but they impose a fixed trade-off between performance and the visual cleanliness expected from an ultra-luxury vehicle, and they leave large areas of the body shell aerodynamically passive.
