The squad currently sits second in both standings heading into the last two events of Season 11, but is determined to add to its recent success, after their driver Oliver Rowland won the Drivers’ World Championship last time out in Berlin.

For this weekend’s racing, Nissan will showcase a special teal blue edition of its iconic cherry blossom livery, to celebrate the launch of the all-new, UK-manufactured, Nissan LEAF.

A true, third-generation electric vehicle, the LEAF is built upon data and expertise collected since the debut of the pioneering first model in 2010, which was the world’s first mass market electric and zero-emission vehicle. Everything learned from the close to 700,000 units sold in the last 15 years has helped to create a family-friendly EV with sleek and bold looks throughout.

Nissan's ast visit to London in 2024 was a successful one. Oliver Rowland produced an excellent drive, coming through the field from ninth on the grid to take a special victory in front of his home fans.

Round 16 highlights

On the other side of the garage, Norman Nato returns to the cockpit of the #17 Nissan e-4ORCE 05 aiming to build on his strong track record at the Excel London Circuit, which has seen the Frenchman score points in three out of the last four races held there.

“I really like the London circuit, even though I have not been too successful here until last season," says new champion Rowland. "We’ve been racing at this track for many years, so everyone is familiar with it. It’s a fun circuit to drive and we know what’s required from the car in terms of energy management.

"Part of the circuit has been resurfaced, which will hopefully give us more grip. I’m expecting the races to be tough physically, with overtaking set to be difficult.

"PIT BOOST and ATTACK MODE strategies will be crucial to gaining positions. I’m feeling relaxed after winning the drivers’ title in Berlin, but we still have the teams’ and manufacturers’ championships to fight for, so we’ll go all in this weekend and enjoy these last two races.”


“We’re pleased to arrive in London having already won the drivers’ title and in strong contention for the other two championships, which was one of our targets for this season. We’re also happy to welcome Norman back after he missed the last round," says Team Principal and Managing Director Tomasso Volpe.

"We have great memories at this track, having won the last race here with Oliver. Both he and Norman have done well at this circuit in the past and, with Oli already World Champion, we can be aggressive and put our full focus on securing maximum points for the team.

"The gaps won’t be easy to overturn, but I have full confidence in our engineers and drivers, and we’re ready to give it our all to come out on top.”

“I’m really excited to head back to London," says Norman Nato. "I enjoy the challenge of the track, it’s got the classic Formula E feel and it’s tough to put a lap together with the change of grip from indoor to outdoor.

"It makes the set-up of the car a bit more difficult, especially if there is rain. I’m confident we can have a strong final weekend of the season. The aim is clear - we want to win the teams’ and manufacturers’ titles and we’ll do our best to make that happen.”
