Season 11 sees the introduction of a new era of Formula E race car, the GEN3 Evo. Bridging the gap between the previous GEN3 car and the expected arrival of GEN4 in 2026, the GEN3 Evo heralds a number of updates sure to add to the thrilling spectacle of Formula E on track, and help promote the power of electrification off it.

The pinnacle in electric racing technology, the GEN3 Evo is capable of achieving 0-60mph 36% faster than its predecessor, and 30% faster than a current Formula 1 car. Additional performance upgrades deliver further gains from GEN3, equating to an improvement of around 0.2 secs a lap around the Monaco circuit, while delivering even closer wheel-to-wheel racing.

Top Speed - 322 km/h / 200 mph

Acceleration - 0-62mph (0-100kmh) in 1.86 seconds

Power in attack mode - 350kW / 470bhp

All-wheel drive

The first Formula E car to feature all-wheel drive, maximizing acceleration and control during qualifying duels, race starts and Attack Mode deployment.

Energy recovery

Already 95% efficient thanks to their electric powertrains (vs 40% efficiency for a typical combustion engine) Formula E cars take advantage of a 600kW regenerative braking capacity to generate nearly 50% of the energy needed for a race during the race itself.

Charging

GEN3 Evo cars will continue to be charged by ABB’s state-of-the-art race chargers ahead of races and between sessions.

Sustainability

The GEN3 Evo builds on the GEN3’s legacy as the world’s first net zero carbon race car in the world’s first net zero carbon sport.

Newly optimized Hankook all-weather iON tires are made from 35% recycled and sustainable materials (a 9% increase on GEN3) while delivering 5-10% more grip. All tires are fully recycled after racing.
Linen and recycled carbon fiber are used in the construction of the GEN3 Evo’s bodywork, reducing carbon footprint by more than 10%.
Life cycle thinking is imposed throughout the car’s design and construction, ensuring battery cells can be reused, repurposed or recycled.
All Formula E suppliers must meet strict sustainability targets, including achieving FIA 3* Environmental Accreditation certification.

Battery

The GEN3 Evo boasts one of the most advanced, most sustainable batteries ever made. Suppliers of battery cell minerals are selected based on strict ethics and sustainability standards to ensure a positive or neutral impact on people and the planet.
