New Formula E livery unveiled for 2024/25
The Nissan Formula E Team is excited to unveil its updated livery for the 2024/25 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, with the squad prepared for the first campaign under the new GEN3 Evo regulations.
For the upcoming season, Nissan Formula E Team has opted to continue with its popular cherry blossom livery, which has been a fan-favourite ever since it debuted at the start of Season 9. The pattern is meaningful for the outfit, both as a hint to its Japanese DNA and new beginnings, as well as now being part of Nissan’s identity in Formula E.
The Japanese team will be looking to build on a strong Season 10, which saw it finish fourth in the Teams’ and Drivers’ Championship, as well as third in the newly-established Manufacturers’ Championship.
To help the aim of moving further up the grid, the Nissan Formula E Team has opted to refresh its driver line-up, with the experienced Norman Nato returning after a season away.
Together with Oliver Rowland, who took two victories and five further podiums in an excellent Season 10, the squad now boasts two Formula E race winners. Both drivers possess the knowledge of how to get the most out of their machinery and have a proven track record of helping teams develop their cars.
Running smoothly
Nato will continue to sport the #17 on his Nissan e-4ORCE 05, while Rowland switches to Nissan’s traditional #23.
Rowland and Nato will be on track for the first time in an official capacity as team mates at pre-season testing on November 4-7 in Valencia, while Season 11 kicks off on December 7 at the São Paulo E-Prix.
Tommaso Volpe, managing director and team principal of the Nissan Formula E Team, said: “We’re excited for the new season and have been working hard, getting to grips with the GEN3 Evo car. Everything has been running smoothly so far and we’re looking forward to getting out on track in Valencia.
”Our new workshop is fully operational now, which is making a huge difference – we’ve been able to take full advantage of the facilities, allowing us to maximise the potential of the team.
”In terms of drivers, Norman has settled in very quickly. He knew most of the crew already so that made things easier than normal. Together with Oli, we’re confident that we have a strong line-up ready to fight for wins and podiums.
”On top of that, we’ve got great companies supporting us, with Electromin extending and increasing its collaboration with the team to become our main partner, alongside existing relationships with Coral and Coral Eyewear, who we are delighted to be working with. We’re fully focused on improving at every step and continuing where we left off a few months ago, as we aim to challenge at the top in Season 11.”
