Eight of those ten teams have been involved right from the very start of this championship for completely electrically-powered single-seaters and have competed since the inaugural race, even if some have undergone a name change since then. The new entries come courtesy of Jaguar, the company choosing Formula E to mark its return to motorsport after an absence of over ten years, and the Chinese Techeetah team, that took over Team Aguri’s entry and is owned by China Media Capital, a public equity and and venture capital firm based in Shanghai. Another new name is that of Faraday Future, an advanced mobility company with headquarters in Silicon Valley and Southern California (USA,) which has entered into a new technical partnership with Dragon Racing. 

The ten teams entered are:

• ABT Schaeffler Audi Sport
• Andretti Formula E
• Faraday Future Dragon Racing
• DS Virgin Racing
• Jaguar Racing
• Mahindra Racing
• NextEV NIO
• Renault e.Dams
• Techeetah
• Venturi Formula E

Also announced today are the names of the nine constructors whose powertrains have been homologated for Season 3.
