New Zealand-born Evans joined Jaguar back in 2016, when both driver and manufacturer made their debut in Formula E. Since then, he has been a driving force behind the team's development and success in the world's leading all-electric championship.

In his second season with the team (2017/18), Evans put in several promising performances including Jaguar's first podium finish in Hong Kong and a Julius Baer Pole Position in Zurich. Another significant milestone came the following year, when the Kiwi driver secured both his and Jaguar's first Formula E victory in Rome.

Since those early seasons, Evans has rarely been out of title contention, most notably in the 2021/22 season which proved to be his best yet in terms of points. Evans’ 180 points was a remarkable 75 better than his prior benchmark effort in his third campaign, bolstered by seven trips to the podium, including three wins.

The Kiwi took the title challenge right to the final weekend, but a gutting retirement in London meant he had it all to do to overturn Stoffel Vandoorne come the Seoul finale. He did all he could with a win in the opener but it wasn't enough and Evans was forced to settle for second in the final standings.

Mitch Evans currently sits third in the drivers' standings on 65 points, thanks to a victory and two podiums in the last four races. He trails championship leader, Pascal Wehrlein, by 18 points.

Ian James, Jaguar TCS Racing Team Principal, said: “The partnership between Jaguar TCS Racing and Mitch has been synonymous with the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship. Through his huge successes achieved with the team over the course of the past decade, Mitch has cemented his place in Jaguar’s motorsport history.

“Both Mitch and the team have reached this decision together and, with 11 races still remaining in our partnership, we will be doing everything we can at Jaguar TCS Racing to ensure we continue to support Mitch’s efforts in the Drivers’ World Championship, as well as our fight for the Teams’ and Manufacturers’ World Championships.

“Throughout my time in Formula E Mitch has been a formidable competitor and superbly gifted racing driver. His record-breaking number of wins have all been achieved with Jaguar, so on behalf of the whole Jaguar TCS Racing team, I’d like to thank Mitch and wish him all the best for the future.”

Mitch Evans, Jaguar TCS Racing driver, said: “To have been with Jaguar TCS Racing right from the beginning and achieved so much success throughout the last ten years in Formula E has been incredible. It has been a memorable experience and there have been so many highlights throughout our journey together, but the time is right to embark on a new challenge for next season.

“I am grateful to Jaguar for the opportunity to race for such an iconic brand and will be giving my all to win the Drivers’ World Championship this season while working closely with my team-mate and friend António [Félix da Costa] as we battle for the Teams’ and Manufacturers’ World titles.”
