Innovation in Mobility — Swancor x NTHU Racing Team
June 18,2025
Swancor is proud to support National Tsing Hua University's Racing Team on the launch of their 10th generation electric formula car, "THX" — now faster and lighter than ever, thanks to optimize cutting-edge carbon fiber technology.
According to NTHU Racing Team's vice captain Shu-Wei Shen, The THX key breakthrough includes:
* 7 kg weight reduction with carbon fiber monocoque vs aluminum
* 18 kg saved with 10-inch carbon fiber wheels and lightweight wheel-end system.
From providing high-temperature autoclaves and R&D materials to sharing deep expertise in composite manufacturing, we've worked closely on developing lightweight carbon fiber wheel rims that meet the highest motor sport standards. This is more than about performance — it's about building a talent pipeline fluent in engineering, innovation, and sustainability♻️ for both industry and academia. The THX car heads to Europe this August for Formula Student competition in Hungary, Czech Republic, and Germany — including autonomous driving.
We remains committed to empowering the next generation of engineers and advancing the future of lightweight, high-performance composite materials.
