Cromax Switzerland continues to sponsor the racing team of the Swiss Academic Motorsport Association Zurich (AMZ) of the ETH Zurich. The successor to mythen, the prototype in the electric class, is called alvier and was named after a famous mountain in the canton of St. Gallen.

Work on alvier is already in full swing. A team of 40 students from the ETH Zurich and HS Lucerne are working intensively on the first concepts for the new prototype and can hardly wait to present alvier to the public in eight months.

We are particularly pleased about the continuation in 2019 of our close cooperation with the racing team of the Swiss Academic Motorsport Association Zurich (AMZ) of the ETH Zurich.

After a very successful season 2018, which ended with a double victory in Hockenheim, AMZ again secured the 1st place on the Formula Student Electric world ranking list.

The design of Mythen, named after the well-known Swiss mountain Grosser Mythen, was developed for the racing season 2019 by the ETH students within 8 months. Together with the Cromax employees, Clint Kaufmann, technical manager and Fabio De Giorgi, application engineer, Mythen was prepared for the painting process at the Cromax Training Center in Pratteln.

We are proud to announce our collaboration with the racing team of Academic Motorsports Association of Zurich (AMZ) in Switzerland, which was founded in 2006 by students of ETH Zurich, the city’s science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) university and one of the top ten universities in the world.

Since it was established, AMZ Racing has produced a prototype every year to compete in Formula Student competitions throughout Europe. Formula Student is an internationally recognised motorsports competition specifically developed for students from universities around the world. In 2010, AMZ, the first Swiss team in Formula Student, moved to the eRacing series, which focuses on electric-powered racing cars.
