Mizzou Hydrogen Car Team

The team remains advised by Richard Whelove, alongside Michael Devaney of the Electrical Engineering Department.

The team's current vehicle, Tigergen III, operates on two 1 kW Horizon fuel cells and competed Shell Eco Marathon Americas competition, placing third in the hydrogen UrbanConcept category.

The body and chassis of Tigergen III is integrated as a partial-load bearing system in a partial-monocoque design.

To further reduce weight, Tigergen III's partial monocoque structure is composed entirely of composite materials.

The competition is based on efficiency rather than speed and awards are given to teams that use the least amount of fuel while driving on a 6-mile circuit.

The team competed for the first time with their vehicle named "Tigergen II" in the Shell Eco-Marathon although it did not finish the race due to technical difficulties.
