Formula E

Formula E, officially the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship for sponsorship reasons, is the highest class open-wheel single-seater motorsport championship for electric cars. The inaugural championship race was held in Beijing in September 2014. Since 2020, the series has had FIA world championship status.

The ABB FIA Formula E World Championship season consists of a series of races, each known as an ePrix (written as "E-Prix" on the official website). These take place in multiple countries and continents around the world, mostly on street circuits created specifically for Formula E on closed public roads in the centre of major cities, with a small number on purpose-built circuits such as Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in Mexico City. A points system is used at each ePrix to determine two annual World Championships: one for the drivers, and one for the teams. Each driver must hold a valid e-Licence issued by the FIA to compete.

Formula E cars are one of the fastest racing cars in the world. Major changes made for the 2022–23 season in the development of the Gen3 car were delivered as software updates directly to the advanced operating system built into the car. The estimated top speed is 322 km/h (200 mph). The battery is also designed to be able to handle "flash-charging" delivering up to 600 kW of power, allowing pitstop recharging into the championship for the first time. The wheelbase has been reduced from 3100 mm to 2970 mm and the weight reduced to 760 kg.

Formula E shareholders include Selim Fouad and Warner Bros. Discovery. As of 2024, Formula E’s founder and Spanish businessman Alejandro Agag is the company’s Chairman, and the Chief Executive Officer is Jeff Dodds.
