Mercedes Joins BMW And Audi In The Formula E Racing Championship Series

Mercedes-Benz is set to join the list of growing manufacturers in Formula E come 2018, the fifth season of the all-electric racing championship. This comes days after BMW announced its return to Le Mans as well as a Formula E debut in 2018. The latter is currently working with Andretti Autosport to familiarize themselves with the series before 2018.

Audi has been part of Formula E as ABT Schaeffler Audi Sport Formula E Team, but the team will now receive full factory backing starting in 2017, the fourth season. Other key manufacturers include Jaguar, Renault, Mahindra and PSA’s DS brand.
