Speaking about the Gen3 car's debut, Oliver Rowland - driver at Mahindra Racing, said, "It was such a cool experience to be one of the first to drive the new Gen3 Formula E car. The acceleration is impressive, and it feels very quick overall. I'm sure there will be some good racing next season."
Dilbagh Gill, Team Principal and CEO - Mahindra Racing said, "It's a proud moment for us to take this car to Goodwood just a week after its first test. This is a testament to the hard work, determination and passion of the team to always push to achieve what others see as unachievable. I'm very much looking forward to seeing the car make its debut at an iconic event such as Goodwood, representing the whole of Formula E as the series takes a step to its new era in 2023."
Mahindra says the new M9Electro is the fastest, lightest and most powerful electric race car ever built. It's 60 kg lighter than its predecessor and with 100 kW more power. The single-seater electric race car can hit a top speed of 322 kmph but is quite efficient, capable of generating 40 per cent of the power through regenerative braking. The Gen3 cars feature both front and rear powertrains, a first for any formula car, while also being the first formula car to not feature rear hydraulic brakes.
