Envision Racing to source Formula E powertrain from Jaguar

Jaguar Racing will supply the Envision Racing Formula E team with its powertrain technology for the 2022/23 season.

The multi-year agreement will last the duration of Formula E’s third generation cars, which sees a major overhaul of the technology used in the all-electric championship.

So-called customer teams are common in Formula E, with smaller outfits relying on powertrain technology from major manufacturers. Jaguar, which works with Williams Advanced Engineering, has never supplied another team bar its own works outfit, but will expand to four cars next season.

“We are pleased to announce that we will supply Envision Racing with our Jaguar Formula E powertrain in Gen3,” said James Barclay, managing director at Jaguar Land Rover Motorsport.

“They are one of the most competitive teams in Formula E and it’s an honour that they want to use Jaguar’s powertrain technology in this new era of FIA Formula E. We look forward to working and achieving further successes together in the future. We have a huge amount of respect for Sylvain and all of the Envision Racing team – they are an ideal customer team for Jaguar.

“Envision Racing will be able to optimise their own performance so we remain rivals on track. We race to innovate together and I’m excited to see four Jaguar powered Formula E race cars line up on the grid alongside each other next season.”

Envision Racing managing director and CTO, Sylvain Filippi, added: “Jaguar has been one of our fiercest competitors in Formula E since they joined the Championship in 2016. The team’s advanced powertrain technology and overall commitment to its Formula E programme made them the most attractive option to us.

“Formula E is one of the fastest growing sports in the world, inspiring and exciting the next generation of motorsport fans in cities across the globe. But more exciting is the fact it is arguably the most collaborative sport in the world because we recognise the role that we can play in solving one of the biggest problems of our time in the race against climate change.”
