Formula E cars achieve record acceleration with new all-wheel drive technology
Formula E cars in Season 11 can now accelerate from 0-60 mph in just 1.8 seconds, making them the fastest accelerating race cars in FIA championship history. This improvement is due to the introduction of all-wheel drive and lighter car design. The new GEN3 Evo cars utilize both front and rear motors, enhancing grip and traction. While all-wheel drive is limited to qualifying and Attack Mode, it is expected to create more overtaking opportunities during races. In-race charging technology is being tested but has not yet been implemented. Future developments, including the GEN4 car, promise even greater performance enhancements, with expectations of competing closely with Formula 1 lap times.
