Lola Cars

Fully charged and raring to go...

We are delighted to confirm that Lola's recently announced entry to season 11 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship will continue for the GEN4 era, ensuring our presence on the grid until at least 2030!

Lola is saddened to hear of the passing of the great Ted Toleman, with whom the company was proud to collaborate in the production of the T850. The defending European Formula 2 champions at the time, Toleman Racing would go on to write a lasting legacy in Formula 1 and beyond. Ted's pioneering approach and competitive spirit will be missed by all who knew him.

Lola is delighted to be partnering with ABT to explore far reaching areas of sustainable motorsport. The first step in our new joint venture will see us unite to compete in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship using a powertrain co-developed with technical partner, Yamaha Motor Company.
