On 29 September 2026, CTU Race Day took place on the CTU campus in Dejvice, showcasing the talent, technical expertise, and dedication of the university's student teams. Visitors had the opportunity to learn about the projects of Green Gliders and CTU Lions, whose work connects student innovation with real-world applications and industry collaboration.
The Green Gliders team unveiled its new racing vehicle, Glider Model 2, which was designed and built entirely from scratch for the 2026 season. This year, the team competed in the Shell Eco-marathon 2026 at Poland's Silesia Ring circuit. Achieving an impressive efficiency of 528 km/kWh, the team ranked among the best in Europe. Weather permitting, visitors could also watch a dynamic demonstration of the team's previous-generation vehicle.
Motorcycle enthusiasts had the chance to see the latest racing machine developed by CTU Lions, the CTU Lions EVO 4.0 Electric. According to the team, it is the fastest motorcycle they have built to date and has already achieved excellent competitive results.
"CTU Race Day provides an opportunity to showcase the talent and commitment of our faculty's student teams. Their projects help students develop both technical and organizational skills, bring innovative solutions to life, strengthen cooperation with industry, and enhance the reputation of CTU as a whole," said Assoc. Prof. Stanislav Novotný, Dean of the CTU Faculty of Transportation Sciences.
