Overview
- Formula E and the FIA ran the first public laps Tuesday at Circuit Paul Ricard, with Porsche, Jaguar and Stellantis’s Opel on track as other manufacturers observed.
- Headline figures include a top speed beyond 335 km/h, 0–100 km/h in about 1.8 seconds and up to 600 kW in Attack Mode.
- The new car adds permanent all‑wheel drive, two aero packages tuned for qualifying or the race, a wider cockpit and power‑assisted steering.
- Officials cite sustainability gains that include a fully recyclable build according to series claims, at least 20% recycled materials in key parts, tyres with high natural and recycled content and batteries without rare earths, plus a switch to Bridgestone.
- Manufacturers now refine their cars under a token‑based upgrade cap for motors, gearboxes and control units ahead of autumn homologation and a 2026/27 season debut.
