OUR
PROJECTS
RX Supercar
FIA World Rallycross Supercar
The headline says it all. STARD is proud to present the latest development, targeted to compete in one of today´s most thrilling action packed motorsports. The FIA World Rallycross Championship. Entered by the World RX Team Austria, the car has proven to be one of the fastest machines in the circus capable to compete with the fully works supported cars, scoring numerous top 3 heat results, top 5 overall calssification results, and a number of national/regional race vitories.
ViewHigh Performance
Variant Road Car
The STARD Subaru BRZ „STI“ Turbo was developed to investigate the possibility and potential of the Subaru BRZ chassis (which is same as the Toyota GT86) to incorporate a more powerful turbocharged engine. The base car is powered by a normally aspirated 2.0 200 hp flat four engine. For this high performance variant prototpye, STARD has used the latest Subaru 2.0 T-GDI flat four with 300 hp.
ViewFIA R4 Category Rally Car
Another works project for STARD. Subaru Tecnica International has assigned STARD to develop the Subaru Impreza WRX STI Spec C R4, which then hase been entered by Stohl Racing in the WRC, IRC and ERC rally championships worldwide. Further, numerous customer versions have battled successfully against the competiotion in various national and regional championships.
ViewElectric Integrated
Drivetrain (IDT)
STARD's latest component development Integrated Drive train (IDT) for electric vehicles features a unique package, housing 2 mechanically independent electric motors, 2 Inverters, 2 planetary gears and the complete cooling package for the entire system in one compact cast aluminium housing.
ViewSequential 4-wheel
active Torque Control
Set to challenge the tasks around 4 individually driven wheels, STARD and the Technical University of Vienna´s Department for Vehicle Dynamics have started a 3-year government funded (FFG) research project in order to research and develop innovative control strategies for vehicles with 4 individually driven wheels.
ViewActive Air
Suspension Control System
Planned to be used in passenger, SUV and sports car suspension systems of tomorrow, STARD is involved in the development of innovative Air Suspension Control Systems for high performance automotive applications.
ViewMonovalent CNG
High Performance Powertrain
In order to meet expectations in modern motorsport regarding emissions and other general environmental aspects, back in 2006 STARD has started a project together with OMV (Austrian Minerals Federation), to get not only rally sports greener.
