THE CARS: PHOENIX & ALPHA
From Bangladesh's first-ever mechanical pass at Formula SAE Japan 2023 to our next-generation track campaign targeting FSAE Dynamix India 2027 and Silverstone UK.
KILOFLIGHT PHOENIX
Currently in active development, KILOFLIGHT PHOENIX is our next-generation internal combustion vehicle (CV), engineered specifically to take part in FSAE Dynamix India 2027 (January 17–18, 2027) and upcoming European circuits. Powered by a high-revving 292 cc CFMoto 300SR single-cylinder engine, PHOENIX features complete custom vehicle aerodynamics, a custom CNC-milled 3-pedal box with dual-circuit TVS hydraulics, a 24.4 kg lightweight 4130 Chromoly spaceframe, and sustainable 7-layer jute-fiber composite body panels.
KILOFLIGHT ALPHA
Manufactured in 2023, KILOFLIGHT ALPHA is the trailblazing first-generation combustion vehicle that established Bangladesh's presence on the global Formula Student grid. Featuring a natural jute-fiber composite body shell, ALPHA made national history as the first Bangladeshi Formula Student vehicle to pass the comprehensive mechanical inspection segment at Formula SAE Japan 2023.
