The first leg i.e. Preliminary round of BAJA SAEINIDIA 2021 was conducted in December 2020, wherein teams were asked to submit the Design Report of their buggy along with Automotive\/Rulebook quiz and evaluation. This evaluation was not an elimination round, but the score obtained by teams will be added to final scores of the team.The second leg will consist of Static Events done on personalized video conferencing software. Followed by this, the Dynamic events will be held virtually through IPG CarMaker. The virtual dynamic events will include Acceleration performance, Brake performance, Gradeability performance, Maneuverability performance, Suspension and traction performance &amp; All-Terrain Performance.<\/p>\n<p>BAJA SAEINDIA 2021 is about \u2018Embracing Challenges\u2019 by converting barriers into opportunities. As the world faces a test of survival and simultaneously, the automotive industry adopts trends like electrification of vehicles, stricter emission and crash norms, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/tag\/baja-saeindia\/\">BAJA SAEINDIA<\/a> presents a challenge to the budding engineering leaders to embrace this scenario and spark path breaking ideas to lead a new and exciting future of recreational Off-road All-Terrain Vehicles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/top-reasons-to-choose-cse\/\">Top Reasons To Choose Cse &amp; How Chitkara University Is A Perfect Institution?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The objective of the competition has been to put forth real-world engineering design projects and provide a platform to overcome related challenges. BAJA Chitkara 2021 was about \u2018Overcoming Challenges\u2019 to achieve the sole aim of survival and simultaneously of the automotive industry.<\/p>\n<p>Each team\u2019s goal was to think upon for a safe, easily transported, easily maintained and fun to drive prototype without any direct involvement from professional fabricators. To test the patience of the teams, restrictions including speed limit to 60 kmph.<\/p>\n<p>The Dynamic Evaluation Round tested the vehicles for acceleration, sledge pull, maneuverability and Suspension &amp; Traction. Durability Evaluation Round witnessed vehicles undergo endurance tests of four hours of BAJA. The Endurance Event assessed each vehicle\u2019s ability to operate continuously and at a speed over rough terrain containing obstacles in any weather conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on occasion, Dr Madhu Chitkara, Pro-Chancellor, Chitkara University said, \u201cOur association with the BAJA SAE INDIA started in the year 2015 and has been growing ever since.

The competitive atmosphere at BAJA, always put learning at the front and nurtures the growth of an individual right before they enter the competitive environment of the industry. The competition enables them to grapple with a real-life application and improve their skills related to design, validation, marketing, project management, teamwork, etc., which boosts their self-confidence and teaches them leadership skills. Indeed, all of this will help BAJA SAEINDIA contribute to building yet another generation of readymade engineers. I wish all the participating teams at BAJA SAEINDIA 2021 the very best.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 14th edition of the much-awaited BAJA SAE 2021 series concluded with&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":193,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[43,47,55],"tags":[310,486,485,333],"ppma_author":[509],"class_list":["post-191","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-automotive-engineering","category-engineering","category-pr","tag-best-engineering-college","tag-chitkara-university-punjab","tag-mahindra-baja-saeindia-2021","tag-top-ranking-engineering-colleges-in-india"],"acf":[],"authors":[{"term_id":509,"user_id":1,"is_guest":0,"slug":"blogsadmin","display_name":"blogsadmin","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/c8e72b1a3ba39eaa59220e26e03930d01ed7a4935cde2c65fa26c89eb3672dec?s=96&d=mm&r=g","1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=191"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3137,"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191\/revisions\/3137"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/193"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=191"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=191"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=191"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chitkara.edu.in\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=191"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
