What did Jaguar gain by spending a lot of money in Formula E?

In fact, as early as 2016, Jaguar became the first luxury car brand to participate in Formula E as a manufacturer team, and Jaguar drew technology and inspiration from the i-Type Formula E car to create the Jaguar i-Pace, a pure electric coupe SUV, accumulating valuable experience for the electrification upgrade of its production models. <>

Not only that, Jaguar has teamed up with Formula E to launch the Jaguar i-Pace eTrophy Cup, the world's first mass-produced all-electric vehicle championship for Wing. Starting from the 2018 and 2019 seasons, the race will be the only official race in support of Formula E for the third year in a row.

The i-PACE etrophy electric racing car used in the race is based on the production version of the i-PACE, and it is understood that in addition to the lightweight, brakes, and chassis improvements, the battery and three-electric system are the same as those of the civilian version. The intense on-track drive will undoubtedly put Jaguar i-Pace eTrophy's battery management system to the test, and judging from the on-site racing situation, not a single car was withdrawn due to the seepage of the deceased. <>

According to the Jaguar staff at the scene, the Jaguar i-Pace etrophy car is about 200,000 pounds, and the cost of participating in this event is about 700,000 pounds for the whole year. If you have an FIA-recognized driver's license, you can also sign up, but of course you need to find a sponsor. Jaguar i-Pace eTrophy Sanya Station, Autohome and others participated in this event.

Compared with F1, Formula E is obviously much less invested, but the extreme driving of the car is still a very big test for the battery system, and this accumulation of experience may be the biggest gain of Jaguar's participation in this event. Of course, I also want to tell ordinary consumers through the event that Jaguar's pure electric vehicles are reliable, not just tested by the three highs. In addition, Jaguar also relies on the race to create a Race Flag version for consumers.

This year, the "Jaguar Circuit Day" series of activities will be launched.

In addition to the Formula E and Jaguar i-Pace eTrophy Cups, as part of the 2019 Jaguar Circuit Year, the brand will work with dealer partners to launch a series of "Jaguar Circuit Days" in more than 130 cities across the country.

At the same time, Jaguar will launch three track-inspired Race Flag models in the Chinese market this year. At the Shanghai Auto Show, which opens on April 16, the Jaguar F-TYPE Flag Edition will be officially unveiled.

Pan Qing, Global Director of Jaguar Land Rover, President of Jaguar Land Rover China and President of Jaguar Land Rover China and Jaguar Land Rover**, joint marketing sales and service organization, said: "Jaguar Land Rover is committed to the world's commitment to 'race for the new' and is actively engaged in top racing. In the future, based on Formula E and the Jaguar i-Pace eTrophy Cup, we will continue to improve Jaguar Land Rover's electrification R&D capabilities and technical reserves, achieve breakthroughs on the road of new energy, and lead development." ”
