The Nissan Formula E Team are an international motorsport team, set to compete in the 2022/23 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship as the factory Nissan team.[1] The team would be formed after Nissan's acquisition of the e.Dams entry from DAMS, with whom they had partnered since joining the series in 2018/19 in place of Renault.[2][3]
Background[]
Nissan announced their purchase of the e.Dams Formula E squad on 12 April 2022, as a means to reinforce their base in the FIA Formula E World Championship ahead of the 2022/23 season.[2] The decision would mean that DAMS left FE, having been a founding member of the Series back in 2014/15, with Nissan instead choosing their junior single-seater rivals ART Grand Prix to help develop their Generation 3 design.[4] Nissan had initially purchased a minor stake in e.Dams when they partnered with the French squad in 2018/19, before engaging the Driot brothers in purchasing the entry outright after the death of their father and DAMS founder Jean-Paul Driot.[3][5]
Formula E History[]
The Nissan Formula E Team would be formed after Nissan obtained full control of the existing e.Dams team with whom they had partnered since joining the series in 2018/19, although the Japanese manufacturer would retain the overall structure and base in Le Mans, France, of the e.Dams effort.[1][2] The team was set to make its ABB FIA Formula E World Championship debut at the start of the 2022/23 season, unsurprisingly as the factory entry for Nissan.[1]
