Team Eta

Team Eta Hello There! We're Team Eta.A group of aspiring engineers to make India's most fuel efficient car wi Essentially, WE, a group of students from K.J. Our AIM?

WELCOME TO THE TEAM ETA'S page-
HERE’S WHERE YOU FIND OUT A LITTLE MORE ABOUT US AND WHAT DRIVES US. Somaiya College of Engineering are attempting to do what hasn’t been done too many times before-Building a car who’s efficiency is simply unmatched. We’re all aspiring engineers in our respective fields and have come together to make our dream a reality. To design and build a car that can revolutio

nize the concept of mileage and go beyond what cars offer today, all from scratch. We want to take this car to the SHELL ECO-MARATHON held annually and showcase it to the world. We have already reached a milestone with our first car-JUGAAD’13 which is currently India’s most fuel-efficient car giving an astounding mileage of 300 km/pl. However this is just the beginning for us. Inspired with this success, we want to take our level up a notch-starting with our next car which we hope to take to the MARATHON in 2014. Shell Eco Marathon is a competition organized by SHELL group of companies. This competition happens in 3 places around the globe, Amsterdam, Texas and Manila. As India falls in the Asian Continent, we participate in manila, the capital of Philippines. There are 2 categories, Urban Concept and Prototype. We participate in the Prototype category. To know more about us you can “walk through” our website www.teameta.in Cheers!

Proud to have Siddhautovation on board as the Technical Sponsor of Team ETA.

Their machining support for the XPS foam body mould played a key role in achieving the accuracy, surface finish, and dimensional precision required for our vehicle body.

Great engineering is built on precision, and this support laid the foundation for everything that followed.
Thank you for the trust, expertise, and technical backing throughout this journey.

Meet the Machine | Episode 1: Suspension System

“The system that keeps the chaos in check.”

Every bump you don’t feel, every sharp turn that still feels planted, every moment your car stays calm while the road loses its mind, that’s the suspension system doing the heavy lifting.

Most people think suspension is “just the springs.”
But it’s an entire team working together beneath the car:

• Springs — absorbing the initial hit from bumps
• Shock absorbers — controlling the bounce so the car doesn’t keep oscillating
• Control arms & links — keeping the wheels in the right position
• Bushings — cutting out vibration so the cabin doesn’t shake itself apart

All of this happens in milliseconds.
On a rough road, the suspension is constantly deciding:
“How much should I absorb? How much should I let the chassis feel? How do I keep the tires glued to the road?”

Too soft → the car floats and feels disconnected.
Too stiff → every bump feels like the road slapped you back.
The magic is in the balance — comfort and grip, working together.

That’s why suspension isn’t just “for a smooth ride.”
It’s the system that controls stability, cornering, braking, and the overall personality of your machine.

It feels invisible…
but it’s one of the most active, hardworking systems in your entire vehicle.

Suspension — the reflexes of the car.
Quiet, fast, essential.
