A Go-kart is a small four wheeled vehicle. Go-kart, by definition, has no suspension and no differential. They are usually raced on scaled down tracks but are sometimes driven as entertainment or as a hobby by non-professionals. Our goal is to design and fabricate the go-kart that offers exceptional performance, driver comfort, and safety. The primary focus is on creating a lightweight kart that delivers impressive performance. Adherence to the rulebook of Edge line Championship is mandatory and significantly influences our objectives. The go-kart, which is propelled by a rear- wheel internal combustion engine without suspension or differential, has been designed in accordance with standard principles. All critical factors and design parameters have been considered, resulting in a thoroughly failure-analysed and ergonomically optimized go-kart. Comprehensive calculations have been conducted for each component, followed by 3D modelling and simulation using professional software tools. The analysis was carried out with different iterations and finally the optimum design of each part of the Go kart was done so as to obtain the optimum result.
