Formula E is the first all-electric FIA World Championship, bringing dramatic racing to the heart of some of the world’s most iconic cities.
Leading car manufacturers and renowned teams use the international stage to showcase and drive innovation in electrified vehicles.
ABT is a founding member of the series and one of its most successful teams.
In 2024, the Championship will enter its tenth season with eleven events around the globe. Venues include Mexico City, Tokyo, London, Shanghai, São Paulo and Berlin.
Lucas di Grassi is Formula E’s most successful driver. The Brazilian competed for ABT in the series’ first seven years, winning the drivers’ title in 2017 and the team championship with Daniel Abt in 2018. The father of two children, who lives alternately in Monaco and his hometown São Paulo, returns to the ABT family for the tenth season.
Nico Müller is contesting his second season in Formula E for ABT CUPRA in 2024. The Swiss driver raced for ABT in the DTM from 2016 to 2020 and celebrated ten victories and two second places during this time. In the challenging Formula E comeback year of 2023, Müller, who lives in Switzerland with his wife and son, surprised everyone with consistently good results in the points.

ABT CUPRA competes in Formula E as a customer team with vehicles from Mahindra Racing. At the heart of the MahindraM10Electro is the drivetrain developed by ZF – the only component other than software that manufacturers are allowed to develop themselves. Otherwise, the third-generation Formula E car, including battery, aerodynamics and standard Hankook tyres, is identical for all participants. The car delivers 300 kW in the race and 350 kW in the qualifying duels.
ZF is responsible for the development of the driveline that ABT, as Mahindra’s customer team, is also using in the cars of Lucas di Grassi and Nico Müller this season. The global technology group, headquartered in Friedrichshafen, Germany, works closely with the team in Formula E and is also represented with its logo on both race cars.
SÜDPACK is a leading manufacturer of high-performance films for the packaging of food, medical and non-food products as well as for technical applications and is also a partner of ABT CUPRA in Formula E.
As ABT’s technical partner, Sabelt equips Marco Mapelli, Jordan Peper, Kelvin van der Linde and the mechanics with high-end racing clothing. The partnership between the two brands also applies to the DTM and Formula E.
Founded in 2018, CUPRA is the Volkswagen Group’s unconventional brand that combines emotion, electrification and performance. Its headquarters and racing department are located in Barcelona. ABT and CUPRA have enjoyed a close and successful partnership on the racetrack and on the road for many years, which has reached a new level with their joint appearance in Formula E.
