SAEINDIA, a professional Society of Automotive Engineers, announced the start of the Virtual Round of the 15th edition of much-awaited BAJA SAEINDIA series (Digital Event).

Around 203 entries across 185 engineering colleges in India were received for BAJA SAEINDIA 2022, out of which 130 teams are registered for conventional m-BAJA & 73 teams are registered for the e-BAJA event.

BAJA SAEINDIA tasks the students to conceptualize design, build, test and validate a single-seater four-wheeled All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) to take part in a series of events, being conducted in three phases this year, giving the teams an opportunity to participate virtually in PHASE-1 & 2 or physically in PHASE-3.

Upon successful conduction of the preliminary round in September 2021, the virtual round is ready to begin in full swing. Embracing the current pandemic challenges, this round will be held on a digital platform involving static as well as dynamic events, considering the risk and health concerns of all stakeholders involved.

This round will incorporate Virtual Dynamic events with the help of Automotive Simulation Software, IPG CarMaker, combined with Digital Static Events for 2022 edition, similar to BAJA SAEINDIA 2021. This includes the Virtual Static Events Evaluation such as Design, Cost, Manufacturing & Sales Presentation as well as the Dynamic Events such as Acceleration, Brake, Gradeability, Suspension & Traction, Manoeuvrability, and All-Terrain Performance held virtually through IPG CarMaker software.
