INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Dallara has won the competition to create the new chassis for the IndyCar Series.
Cars will feature a rolling chassis with an enhanced safety cell, and manufacturers will be able to be dress the cars in multiple ways.
IndyCar made the announcement Wednesday. IndyCar CEO Randy Bernard said the cars will be ready to go in 18 months.
Dallara also created the current chassis, which has been used since 2003. Five companies bid on the chassis.
The chassis will cost $349,000, with a complete car costing $385,000. It is a 45 percent price decrease from the current formula.
