TWO DIVISIONS. ONE COMPETITION.

From a student’s first race to an experienced builder chasing the next breakthrough, Electrathon offers a place on the grid for every kind of racer.

High School Division

High school teams come to the track to put their ideas, skills, and teamwork to the test, gaining the experience of building and racing an electric vehicle from the shop to the finish line.

Open Division

The Open Division is a place for individuals, college teams, and corporate teams to put their skills, vehicle, and competitive spirit to the test.

While the High School and Open Divisions offer different ways to compete, they share the same track, the same spirit of innovation, and the same Electrathon community.

More Than a Race

A LAUNCHPAD FOR FUTURE CAREERS

Electrathon turns hands-on competition into real-world experience. Participants develop skills in engineering, fabrication, electrical systems, problem-solving, teamwork, and project management while working toward a common goal: building a vehicle and getting it across the finish line.
