NOTES TO EDITORS:
ABOUT JAGUAR TCS RACING
Jaguar returned to racing in October 2016, becoming the first luxury manufacturer to join the all‑electric ABB FIA Formula E Championship.
Since then, Jaguar TCS Racing has taken more than 20 race victories and over 60 podium finishes in Formula E, and secured the ABB FIA Formula E Teams’ World Championship and Manufacturer’s Trophy in 2024 – Jaguar’s first World Championship win since 1991. The team repeated that success in Season 12 (2026), winning the Teams’ World Championship again, claiming two of the last three Teams’ titles and firmly established themselves as one of the benchmark teams in Formula E.
Competing in the all‑new GEN3 Evo era, Jaguar TCS Racing debuted its most advanced and efficient Formula E race car – the Jaguar I‑TYPE 7 – and took ten race wins across the Season 11 and 12 campaigns. This is the more victories than any other team in the GEN3 Evo era. Jaguar TCS Racing have also confirmed a long‑term commitment to the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship by signing up to compete in the GEN4 era, which begins in 2026 and runs through Seasons 13‑16. In late 2026, the team will reveal its next GEN4 challenger, the car that will carry Jaguar TCS Racing through to 2030 and into the championship’s next technological chapter.
Jaguar TCS Racing will have a new driver pairing for the 2026/27 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship season. A driver soon to be announced will team up with Season 6 Formula E champion António Félix da Costa for the forthcoming campaign as da Costa enters his second year with the team. The British team will continue to be led by Team Principal Ian James, who also joined in 2025. Ahead of the 2025/26 Teams’ World Championship win, James had also previously overseen two Drivers’ and Teams’ ABB FIA Formula E World Championship victories for the Mercedes‑EQ Formula E Team and led NEOM McLaren to their historic first Formula E win in 2024.
Beyond its all‑electric concept, Formula E is unique in the world of motorsport for its choice of venues. The 2026/27 World Championship will see many events take place on temporary street circuits in the heart of some of the world’s major cities including, São Paulo, Jeddah, Tokyo and Monaco. New additions Austin, Brands Hatch and Zandvoort join the calendar, with the season finale set to unfold across a double‑header weekend in Tokyo for the first time.
As an official manufacturer team in Formula E, Jaguar TCS Racing designs its own powertrain, which includes the motor generator unit, transmission, inverter, and rear suspension. Jaguar, via its long‑term Formula E technical partner Fortescue Zero, will also supply Envision Racing with its powertrain for the GEN4 era.
To control costs, the carbon fibre chassis and battery are common components and the same for all teams. This allows the focus to be on developing efficient and lightweight electric vehicle powertrains that improve the performance and range of future JLR electric vehicles.
Formula E remains a key priority for JLR and the company’s Reimagine strategy. As the premier all‑electric world championship, Formula E allows the team to test and develop new electric vehicle technologies in a high‑performance environment. It continues to be the test bed for the team’s Race to Innovate mission that will see Race to Road and Road to Race learnings that will help shape Jaguar’s all‑electric future.
Through our Race to Inspire mission, Jaguar TCS Racing are committed to inspiring the future generation by using the race programme to create a positive impact on our planet and the communities in which we race. We aim to inspire through developing and competing in the world’s first net carbon zero championship and supporting and training the next generation of engineers and motorsport professionals.
