Formula E cars whizzed past with screeching noises during the first
practice session of the Hyderabad E-Prix.The world’s primary all-electric racing series, which started in 2014 and
is currently in its ninth season, uses cars that do not hurt the eardrums
like F1 which currently uses hybrid V6 internal combustion engines (ICE).

like F1 which currently uses hybrid V6 internal combustion engines (ICE).
Formula E, on the other hand, uses cars that are powered by batteries and
electric motors, racing on street circuits that allow the maximum amount of
braking in comparison to wide and permanent race tracks so that the energy
generated while braking is recovered and recharges the batteries. More than
40% of the car’s energy is regenerated through braking with the process
continuing through the race.
But it has taken Formula E nine seasons to reach the Gen3 stage. The story
started with the Gen1 cars in the first ever season (2014-15) with the
chassis being designed by Dallara, battery created by Williams,
electric motor made by M.
