Formula E confirms date for Gen3 Evo unveiling in Monaco

Formula E has officially announced the date for the unveiling of its new Gen3 Evo car. As we reported in our "Paddock Whispers" article for the Misano E-Prix, the car upgrade will be unveiled on Thursday 25 April at an exclusive launch event in the run-up to the Monaco E-Prix. Even a week before the unveiling, Formula E keeps waffling back and forth between the names "Gen3 Evo" and "Gen3.5".

"As we prepare to unveil the GEN3 Evo, we're not just launching a car; we're continuing to shape the future of racing," says Formula E CEO Jeff Dodds. "This next iteration not only exemplifies our dedication to innovation and pushing the limits of technology but also enhances our commitment to delivering exhilarating, competitive racing for our fans. We are setting new standards in performance that will intensify on-track rivalries and fan engagement, keeping us at the forefront of global motorsports."

In addition to a revised body kit, a completely new all-wheel drive system and a softer rubber compound from tyre supplier Hankook are likely to provide a significant performance boost for the Formula E cars.
