Driving as fast as possible isn’t the only goal in Formula E – efficiency is key, so we’ve gone behind the scenes with Mahindra Racing, as well as created exclusive 3D animations of the Formula E’s powertrain to take a look at how they’ve built their car, and see what Racing Driver Alexander Sims thinks about driving this year’s machinery.

So its like the WEC but electric?
Because its a joke of a series
Yes, please make the races shorter and drive flat out every lap. Noone cares about efficiency, this isn't Le Mans. If I wanna see a bunch of Hyundai Accents driving mildly aggressive at medium highway speeds I can take a drive out on the highway. It'll be more entertaining.
People watch car racing because they want to see cars doing what they themselves are not allowed to do on the road. I watch my gas mileage / battery usage every day as a typical motorist. Why would I give a solitary rat turd about efficiency in a car race on TV?
Feels to me like the whole video is paid promotion…
I am a complete tech noob, but why is the battery alternating current that still needs to be converted? Doesn't that conversion damage the efficiency???
Bc they suck
Shorter races and going flat out 100% of the time? Somewhere I hear Jeremy Clarkson screaming โSPEEEEEED!โ
Cars still sound like Britney Spears hair dryer ! Hahaha
I'd love to see the difference between flat out E and slow-looking current E on tv
The tracks they race on are questionable at best. Extremely tight. I get that itโs designed around the cars power and to promote close racing, but seeing a f1 car flying down the Kemmel straight will always take the cake for most people.
Formula E is a snooze fest.
The other reason FE cars don't drive flat-out is because, if you've ever played with an rc car, you know how quickly electric cars get up to speed. And then they just stay at that speed, it'd be very dull. They don't go very fast, so you'd have slow as hell cars droaning around a track. But having start and stop tracks, you take advantage of an electric car's insane levels of torque.
Is this some sort of clandestine advert for Mahindra?
Same thing is true in F1
Video content pretending not to be a long commercial are getting way too common.
โฆand who really gives a (insert your curse word here)!
Formula Fake.
Autosport, you are loosing your edge… running marketing video's as content.
I came here for a good old jbl explanation video and got a mahindra marketing video โฆ yayy?
My mother watched a Formula E race and asked "Why are they so slow?" True story.
She's 75 and thinks it's total garbage.
Formula E needs to drop the street tracks and music before it will be considered a real race class and not just a gimmick.
And this is why no-one watches
Donโt drive flat out they donโt carry the energy/fuel or have the tyres.
It's the lamest series in existence for the EV fanbois. It'S aLl AbOuT ThE EfFIciENcY… Faaaark off you bunch of daft twats. No real driver would find himself dead in that joke of a series. Humiliating.
They can't.
So, Formula E is not really about racing. It is more like a marathon. Can you make a marathon game exciting? I guess not.
Zzzzzzzz….
Not driving flat-out because of efficiency? Wouldn't that make the cars not as efficient as they need?
Carbon fiber battery soon replaced
Formula is is like motor racing but for nerdsโฆ
I didnโt know Soviet and the gang were branching out
Video answered in the first 6 seconds. Not badโฆ
its simple because the cars are heavy as hell
