New Nissan Formula E

Nissan has revealed its new car for the upcoming Formula E race season – and technology from the racer could be used on future production models. 

Called Nissan e-4orce 04, the car has 40% more power than last year’s challenger and a top speed of over 200mph. Its new red and white livery features a cherry blossom design, in tribute to Japan’s national flower. 

The firm says the livery celebrates its Japanese heritage and that its dedication to Formula E highlights its commitment to an electrified future. 

Nissan Motorsport managing director Tommaso Volpe told Autocar the e-4orce 04 employs several technologies that could feature on future production cars in an adapted form. 

The e-4orce badge currently represents the car maker’s electrified four-wheel-drive model range, consisting of the Nissan Ariya and Nissan X-Trail. Nissan says data gathered from the race car will “directly contribute" to the development of its electrified tech and powertrains.
