Audi Unveils Electric Racing Car

Audi revealed on Saturday, its new electric racing car, the e-tron FE07, for the upcoming seventh season of the Formula E World Championship.

The race car's all-new electric powertrain has been developed in-house for the first time. "Motorsport has always been of decisive importance for Audi and its technology development," according to Team Principal Allan McNish.

McNish added: ''That is also where our most famous slogan, ‘Vorsprung Durch Technik’ comes from.”

Meanwhile, the Audi e-tron has been presented in a refreshed design. In addition to the elements in spectacular bright orange and the striking green from technology partner Schaeffler, the entire front end has been given a white primer coat.

On other hand, “We have achieved an overall efficiency of more than 95-percent for our powertrain,” said Tristan Summerscale, Formula E Project Leader at Audi Sport. “The new MGU inverter unit has an efficiency of even more than 97-percent in all relevant driving conditions.”

Meanwhile, the 2021 Formula E season starts in Chile in mid-January. Next year’s Formula E season is more exciting as it’s the first series to be officially recognized by the FIA World Championship.
