A new era of performance

The Gen3 Evo isn’t just about raw speed. It’s a testament to the incredible advancements in EV technology, boasting a performance gain of approximately 2% from its predecessor. This translates to a qualifying lap around the Monaco circuit that’s nearly two seconds faster.

The secret? A combination of all-wheel drive (AWD) that’s available during the most intense moments of the race, an aggressive body kit for improved aerodynamics and Hankook iON tires that offer 5%-10% more grip using 35% recycled materials.

Sustainability at its core

But speed is only part of the story. The Gen3 Evo is the world’s only net-zero carbon race car in the first net-zero carbon sport. It’s not just racing; it’s racing with a conscience. The regenerative braking system is so efficient that it generates nearly 50% of the energy needed for a race during the race itself. With a motor efficiency of over 90% compared to the roughly 50% of internal combustion engines, the Gen3 Evo is all about efficiency.
