Mahwah, NJ – October 22nd: Jaguar TCS Racing has today revealed its Jaguar I‑TYPE 7 in a striking livery for the 2025/26 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, marking the beginning of a new chapter for the team.

With new leadership and a refreshed driver line‑up, the unveiling marks a bold statement of intent for the season ahead, as Jaguar TCS Racing prepares to take to the track for official pre‑season testing in Valencia (October 27‑31).

The latest livery is an evolution of the team’s signature look – sleek and unmistakably modern. The updated design retains the iconic black, white and gold palette, as well as the sharp contrasts and dynamic geometric elements that reflect Jaguar TCS Racing’s forward‑thinking ethos. The Jaguar I‑TYPE 7 is the most successful car of the GEN3 Evo era, claiming six victories for Jaguar TCS Racing and one win for customer team Envision Racing in Season 11.

The official pre‑season test in Valencia marks the first public outing for Jaguar TCS Racing’s refreshed leadership and driver line‑up, as newly appointed Team Principal Ian James joins forces with 2019/2020 World Champion António Félix da Costa and long‑standing Jaguar driver Mitch Evans – who together boast the most Formula E race wins of any previous Formula E pairing. The trio’s first official outing in Valencia signals the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the team ahead of Season 11.

Entering its milestone tenth year with a record to date of 22 wins, a further 31 podiums and 1,638 points from 127 race starts, Jaguar TCS Racing heads into the new season looking to build on the momentum of an incredible 2024/25 campaign, finishing runners‑up in both the FIA Teams’ and Manufacturers’ World Championships. With six wins – five of them in the final six races – the team delivered more race victories than any other season to date, showcasing its championship‑caliber potential. The I‑TYPE 7, now entering its second year in the GEN3 Evo homologation era, remains unchanged for the upcoming campaign.

This season marks a fresh chapter for Jaguar TCS Racing. With a new driver added to our line‑up and the final evolution of GEN3 machinery, we’re entering pre‑season testing in Valencia with real momentum and focus. It’s the first step in what we believe will be another fiercely competitive year – and we’re ready to rise to the challenge.

Ian James
Jaguar TCS Racing Team Principal

I can’t wait to get back behind the wheel and start putting the Jaguar I TYPE 7 through its paces in Valencia. With the speed we showed in the car at the end of last season and a fresh team dynamic, we’re ready to give it everything and I’m looking forward to the season ahead

Mitch Evans
Jaguar TCS Racing driver, #9

I’m really excited to begin my journey with Jaguar TCS Racing. The team showed incredible pace last season, and we’re all feeling motivated heading into this year. Valencia testing will be a key moment for me to get comfortable with the Jaguar I TYPE 7 and start building that performance foundation ‑ I’ll be pushing hard from day one

António Félix da Costa
Jaguar TCS Racing driver, #13

GEN3 EVO and the Jaguar I‑TYPE 7

The GEN3 Evo era introduced new regulations for the 2024/25 and 2025/26 seasons of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, spanning Seasons 11 and 12.

New bodywork, all‑wheel‑drive capability for Qualifying Duels, the launch and ATTACK MODE phases of races, plus new Hankook iON tires were changes for all teams.

As a manufacturer, Jaguar TCS Racing’s GEN3 Evo machine, the Jaguar I‑TYPE 7 – introduced many new Jaguar‑manufacturer perimeter parts when it made its debut at the beginning of Season 11. It showcased cutting‑edge engineering with an all‑new rear powertrain featuring a redesigned inverter, Motor Generator Unit (MGU), and transmission, homologated for the 2025/26 season, with the ambition of pushing performance to the next level.

Its reconfigured package has improved handling balance, aided by a lighter electrical ancillary system. Enhanced thermal management makes the MGU more efficient, while a newly developed rear suspension offered greater adaptability across diverse circuit conditions – providing precision, performance, and versatility.

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 50 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.  
  
Last season, 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 six race wins across the 2024/25 campaign. This is the most victories the British team has taken across a single season since joining the championship nine years ago.  

Jaguar TCS Racing has a new driver pairing for the 2025/26 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship season. Mitch Evans – who has taken the joint‑highest number of victories in Formula E history whilst driving with Jaguar – will team up with Season 6 Formula E champion António Félix da Costa for the forthcoming campaign. The British team will be led by new Team Principal Ian James, who has 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.

Jaguar TCS Racing have also confirmed a long‑term commitment to the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship by signing to participate in the GEN4 era, set to commence in 2026 and running through seasons 1316.   


Beyond its all‑electric concept, Formula E is unique in the world of motorsport for its choice of venues. The 2025/26 World Championship will see many events take place on temporary street circuits in the centre of the world’s major cities including, São Paulo, Jeddah, Tokyo and Monaco. Additional new venues include Miami and Madrid, with the season finale again set to play out across a double‑header race weekend in London.   

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 GEN3 Evo era.   

To control costs, the carbon fiber 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 which will 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 program to create a positive impact on our planet and the communities in which we race. From competing in the world’s first net zero carbon race car to supporting and training the next generation of engineers and motorsport professionals.
