All-electric junior touring car series to support Formula E, DTM
The NXT Gen Cup, a junior racing series, will be open to drivers aged between 15-25 and will take place during six rounds of the Formula E and DTM championships. The series debuted in Sweden last year and will feature 20 male and female participants. The events will include practice sessions, qualifying, and a 20-minute race. This marks the return of a regular support series for Formula E since the discontinuation of the Jaguar I-Pace eTrophy in 2020. The series will use electric MINI Cooper SE road cars developed by the Lestrup Racing Team, with a power output of 180bhp (240bhp with push-to-pass).
