Panasonic Jaguar Racing will be heading to Hong Kong for the start of its second season in the FIA Formula E Championship. The season opener takes place on 2 - 3 December in Asia's first ever double-header race weekend and will be the first-time drivers Nelson Piquet Jr. and Mitch Evans line up on the grid together in the new British team.
This season, Panasonic Jaguar Racing has developed a new powertrain, with more than 200 new parts in the Jaguar I-TYPE 2 to produce a more efficient package using high strength lightweight materials.
Taking in all the learnings and technical advancements from season three, the team believe these will have a positive impact on their performance. For this season, the race power level increases to 180kwh making the cars even faster.
From season five, 20 Jaguar I-PACE eTROPHY racecars will line up on the grid in ten of the world's most iconic cities, in the world's first all-electric support race series. The championship will take place on the same day as the FIA Formula E Championship, enhancing the electric race schedule.
From 2020 all new Jaguar Land Rover model lines will be electrified - with either hybrid or battery technology.
