It will be the face of Formula E season 11. The model of the new Formula E GEN3 Evo was revealed on Thursday April 25 at a ceremony held at the Car Collection of H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco just ahead of the Monaco E-Prix 2024. The event is the 8^th round of the season 10 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.

Speed, efficiency and reliability. Three key words that characterize the GEN3 Evo, the Formula E model that will be on the track next season. Unveiled just before the start of the Monaco E-Prix, this evolutionary version of the GEN 3 – the one racing in season 10 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship – is very promising.

This car is the result of a joint effort by the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) and the Formula E organization, the GEN3 Evo is nothing less than the fastest FIA single-seater in the world! It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 1.86 seconds! That’s 30% quicker than a current Formula 1 car. That’s enough to satisfy the winner of the 2019 Monaco E-Prix, Jean-Éric Vergne: “I think Formula E understands that we need more speed. We should be going faster, and this is a great way to move forward.” A reflection shared by Cyril Blais, Team Principal of Maserati MSG Racing, the Monaco Formula E Team racing on home soil this weekend in the Principality. “The FIA is listening to the team’s feedback. The car looks good and is less sensitive to drag. The 0 to 60 km/h will be great. Electric cars are very fast even if we save energy. It’s a good technological showcase of what Formula E cars can do.”

Time-wise, this car is capable of completing a lap of the Monaco circuit 2 seconds faster than its predecessor. Moreover, Formula E estimates a 2% gain in performance over the current GEN3 generation. The GEN3 Evo will also have a top speed of 322 km/h. Ian James, manager of the NEOM McLaren Formula E Team, shows his enthusiasm: “The work done [between the FIA and Formula E] allows the whole package to reach its full potential. It’s going to improve the races. I think it’s a huge opportunity”.

These innovations are made possible by an all-wheel drive system. It will be available during qualifying, starts, and when the Attack-Mode is deployed. Regenerative braking and upgrades to the racing software have also been introduced.

The Hankook tires that will be fitted on the car will increase grip by an estimated 10%. In addition to performance, the GEN3 Evo boasts an even more refined visual and aerodynamic appearance. It also features a narrower nose.

The first laps of the GEN3 Evo are due to take place in Season 11 of the Formula E. But before looking to the future, the public can enjoy the present and see 22 Formula E single-seaters speeding through the Principality on Saturday, April 27, 2024!
