The Race recently revealed detailed design plans for the upcoming Gen4 Formula E car, which will be the fastest and most powerful all-electric world championship machine.
Compared to the current Gen3 Evo car, the new Gen4 model showcases several significant changes, with a prototype version already undergoing testing over the past three months.
The Gen4 car will feature permanent four-wheel-drive, a maximum power of 600kW (up from 350kW), and increased energy recuperation from 600kW to 700kW.
With dimensions including longer length, increased wheelbase, and wider body, the Gen4 car resembles a traditional single-seater with influences from Super Formula and Formula 2 designs.
A collective test for manufacturers to share initial knowledge is scheduled for November, leading up to the official season kick-off in approximately 16 months as Formula E aims to boost power, performance, and viewership engagement in the Gen4 era.
