Lyten, a
leader in advanced material science and developer of 3D Graphene,
has announced the launch of Lyten Motorsports, a new venture focused on
transforming the performance of motorsport components through next-generation
composite materials. The initiative is being launched in collaboration with
INDYCAR Experience, a veteran supplier with over 25 years in
global motorsports.
At the core of this
effort is Lyten’s proprietary 3D Graphene platform, a tunable carbon-based
material engineered to enhance strength, reduce weight, and improve electrical
and thermal conductivity. Lyten Motorsports aims to use these characteristics
to replace metal components and enhance carbon fiber parts for high-speed
racing applications.
“Motorsports sit at
the cutting edge of materials innovation, and we believe 3D Graphene is poised
to be the next revolution, just as carbon fiber was in previous decades,” said
Dan Cook, Co-Founder and CEO of Lyten. “This platform allows us to build parts
that are lighter, stronger, and more efficient while simultaneously reducing
environmental impact.”
Lyten has already been testing its materials in real-world racing conditions, leveraging a two-year development program on the INDYCAR Experience 2-seater platform. This collaboration provides critical performance data while accelerating the path to commercialization for motorsport applications. The Lyten-sponsored INDYCAR 2-seater will continue testing throughout the 2025 racing season, including at the Indy 500.
“We’re scaling up U.S. manufacturing to meet the growing need for lightweight, high-strength parts across U.S. and international racing series,” said Scott Jasek, CEO of INDYCAR Experience. “Motorsports is a high-growth, technology-driven field, and Lyten’s material science is exactly what’s needed to push the limits of performance.”
Lyten, backed by over $425 million in equity funding, including investments from Stellantis, FedEx, Honeywell, Nokia, and Prime Movers Lab, is already applying its 3D Graphene platform to products such as lithium-sulfur batteries, sensors, concrete, and advanced composites.
