Since the concept of Formula E, Ricardo has been evaluating, analysing and developing a unique range of transmissions and drive units to accommodate the ever-changing battery and motor technologies.

By use of Ricardo’s in-house test facilities, developments have been made in differential technology, lubrication management and gear engagement to maximise efficiency in this highly competitive formula. 

Currently Ricardo is partner to a number of Formula E teams to develop bespoke solutions and drive the highest performance.

Ricardo’s experience with hybrid and electric passenger and hyper car development is ready to be brought to bear on the next generation of racing formulae which will no doubt feature battery and electric motor support to the internal combustion engine.
