QUIETS
Clean snowmobile designers
QUIETS
Student club
Founded in 2003 at ÉTS, QUIETS specializes in designing innovative and ecologically friendly snowmobiles to help preserve the environment. QUIETS began with a simple idea, that of giving an opportunity for like-minded students to challenge their own knowledge and capabilities through academic work.
Our vision
Beyond the snowmobile’s often criticized loud and polluting nature, we firmly believe in its potential to become a more ecologically viable hobby that’ll keep thriving for generations to come. By utilizing some of the best technologies curently available on the market, we aim to redefine the image of the sport as well as help shine it with a more positive light for the public. Not only do we believe in the importance of striving for performance but also in enjoying ourselves while doing so.
Those are the convictions that drive us and our work!
Our challenges
Throughout the course of a competition, teams are evaluated based on different aspects of their design including pollution emissions, fuel consumption, loudness level, overall performance as well as handling, to name a few. At QUIETS, our team is constantly working to offer new alternatives that improve the performance of snowmobiles in such areas. We do so only by using widely available parts that are both affordable and easy to implement into projects.
These are some of the challenges we and our snowmobiles are constantly facing!
