The UMI MB GPE team presented its Formula Student GPE14 car in Maribor. This is a group of 35 students, mostly from the Maribor Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, who have invested their knowledge and free time throughout the academic year in making the right formula from carbon fiber. The GPE14, which weighs only 170 kilograms, is powered by a 450cc KTM 55-horsepower (41KW) powertrain and reaches a speed of 160km / h, accelerating to 100km / h in 3.7 seconds.

The students invested a total of over 1000 hours or six months in the project, and their diligent work bore fruit in competitions abroad, where, for example, in England, they took an excellent 90rd place out of 23 participants.
