Nissan to supply GEN4 powertrains to Andretti Formula E
Nissan is delighted to announce a multi-year agreement to supply its Formula E GEN4 powertrain to Andretti Formula E from Season 13 onwards. The agreement brings together two of the most established and competitive organizations in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, creating a strong platform for technical collaboration throughout the series’ next era.
Formula E is a key pillar of Nissan’s global electrification strategy, making success in the championship an important part of the company’s long-term ambitions. As one of Formula E's longest-standing competitors, Andretti Formula E has consistently competed at the front of the field, securing the 2023 FIA Formula E Drivers' World Championship with Jake Dennis. Working alongside such an experienced and competitive customer team further strengthens Nissan’s position in the sport and commitment to the series as it enters its next chapter.
Beyond supplying powertrains, Nissan and Andretti Formula E will work closely throughout the GEN4 era, combining technical expertise, engineering knowledge and sporting experience. With four Nissan-powered cars competing in the series, the collaboration will create valuable opportunities for technical exchange and continuous development, helping both organizations maximize performance in one of world motorsport’s most competitive championships.
The collaboration also benefits from the expertise of two FIA Formula E Drivers' World Champions. Reigning title holder Oliver Rowland and Andretti Formula E's Jake Dennis will both contribute their experience and technical feedback as the partnership develops through the GEN4 era.
The agreement was announced in Tokyo during one of the most significant weeks of the season for Nissan Formula E Team, ahead of the Japanese capital’s first-ever night E-Prix. To mark the occasion, the team will compete in a special one-off NISMO-inspired livery, celebrating Nissan's rich motorsport heritage as it enters its final home race weekend of the GEN3 era.
Guillaume Cartier, chief performance officer, Nissan Motor Corporation:
“Formula E continues to play an important role within Nissan’s global electrification strategy. Our collaboration with Andretti Formula E and TWG Motorsports supports our goals in the sport and strengthens our commitment to the championship. We look forward to leveraging each other’s expertise to achieve success on and off the track, demonstrating our leadership in our respective industries and generating excitement to audiences around the world.”
Jill Gregory, president, Andretti Global:
“Formula E remains an important part of our global motorsports strategy, and partnering with Nissan for the GEN4 era is a significant step for Andretti Formula E. Nissan has established itself as one of the Championship’s leading competitors, and we believe this partnership provides a strong foundation to compete for race wins and championships.”
Tommaso Volpe, managing director and team principal, Nissan Formula E Team:
“We’re delighted to welcome Andretti Formula E as our customer team for the GEN4 era. Formula E is an increasingly competitive championship, and having a strong partner is an important part of maximizing both performance and technical development. Andretti is one of the most successful names in motorsport, including Formula E, where it has established itself as one of the leading teams in the sport, consistently competing at the front and securing a Drivers’ World Championship. We look forward to working closely together and building a strong partnership.”
Roger Griffiths, team principal, Andretti Formula E:
“With a motorsports legacy lasting over 80 years and multiple wins and championships across a diverse range of categories including the current Formula E World Drivers’ Championship, Nissan has more than proven its pedigree at the highest echelons of the sport. As an early pioneer of electric vehicles, Nissan has developed vast knowledge in this category and through their time in Formula E have shown how immensely competitive they can be. It’s these characteristics that align so well with the approach of Andretti Formula E and why we are extremely proud to be aligned with the Japanese manufacturer entering the highly anticipated GEN4 era in Formula E.”
