First photos of the Porsche 99X Electric from Valencia
Stuttgart. Neel Jani and André Lotterer, the two regular drivers for the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team, have completed their first laps in the Porsche 99X Electric at the official test drives of the ABB FIA Formula E Championship for the 2019/2020 season (15th to 18th October 2019).
“In hindsight, we laid the foundations for Porsche’s future involvement in Formula E during the LMP1 project,” said Malte Huneke, Technical Project Leader Formula E.
“We used the insights gained during that time in the development of the Porsche Formula E powertrain. We focused on building a highly effective powertrain with the highest level of efficiency.”
Using the learnings from the racetrack, the same 800-volt technology used in its 99X also features in the series production of the first fully electric Porsche sports car, the Taycan.
