FORMULA E

The idea of the first all-electric street racing series emerged in 2011, promoted by FIA President Jean Todt and Spanish businessman Alejandro Agag. QEV Technologies was involved in the series from very beginning. In the first season (2014/15) we managed the NEXTEV TCR team and we won the championship with Nelson Piquet Jr. From next season we started a long-term collaboration with Mahindra Racing. Every season we keep pushing to develop the high-end technology and to motivate the team to raise the bar. Also during the 6th season we got involved with NIO 333 team, and even hold a stake in it.
