It seems clear to me that the future is electric racing. It is exhilarating to be at the forefront of a new way of racing, and we are making history by starting that journey with the Jaguar I‑PACE eTROPHY series.
Mark Turner
Jaguar I‑PACE eTROPHY Series Manager
Following Jaguar’s entry into ABB FIA Formula E as the first premium manufacturer, conversations with Formula E around converting our all‑electric road car, the I‑PACE, into the world’s first battery electric racecar, came around quite quickly. We identified there was a gap during race weekends suitable for a support series and most importantly, we had the all‑electric I‑PACE road car on the market. Within 18 months we went from concept to reality, delivering what is a truly global championship with the Jaguar I‑PACE eTROPHY.
James Barclay
Jaguar Racing Team Director
The new series, hosted by Amanda Stretton and Vernon Kay, will be a regular, insightful series fans can look forward to with new guests in each episode across Formula E and the Jaguar I‑PACE eTROPHY– the word’s first all‑electric touring car series.
