Panasonic Jaguar Racing will make its Federation Internationale de l'Automobile Formula E debut in the season opening race in Hong Kong's iconic Central Harbourfront district this Sunday.
Beginning in Hong Kong, British Driver Adam Carroll, 33, and New Zealander Mitch Evans, 22, will race Panasonic Jaguar Racing's first all-electric Jaguar race car - the I-TYPE - in the 14-round series, which will conclude in Montreal in July 2017. Panasonic Jaguar Racing's I-TYPE features a Motor Generated Unit with a maximum power output of 200kW and with a maximum speed of 225km/h. Power is delivered via a paddle shift sequential gearbox.
Formula E races last 50 minutes and include a mandatory pit stop, in which drivers switch to a second car adding another element to the exciting competition. Drivers face unique challenges in Formula E as they have to manage battery consumption and regeneration of the battery to maintain charge throughout the race.
Manufacturers can design their own powertrains, which includes the motor, transmission, inverter, and the rear suspension. Common components across all teams include the carbon fibre chassis and battery to help control costs. The focus is on developing electric vehicle powertrains.
