Shanghai (Gasgoo)- The ABB FIA Formula E World Championship is set to debut a groundbreaking pit stop fast charging feature, known as "PIT BOOST," in Season 11, showcasing cutting-edge ultra-fast charging technology for electric vehicles (EVs).
The PIT BOOST is an innovative mid-race feature that provides a 10% energy increase (3.85kWh) to race cars through a 30-second and 600kW rapid recharge in the pit lane. This mandatory sporting feature outpaces the power levels of current consumer EV superchargers.
The introduction of PIT BOOST is expected to redefine race strategies in Formula E. Drivers and teams will have to weigh the benefits of an energy boost against the risk of losing track position during pit stops. Choosing the optimal moment for their PIT BOOST will be critical.
Alberto Longo, Co-Founder and Chief Championship Officer, Formula E, remarked:“After an extensive testing and simulation process, we're pleased to finally present this game-changing technology to the world. It marks one of the most ambitious and impactful additions not just to our series, but modern day motorsport. PIT BOOST will challenge teams and drivers alike to make high-stakes decisions under intense pressure. The potential for dramatic overtakes, unexpected twists, and human ingenuity will elevate the excitement for our fans and showcase Formula E and the FIA's relentless commitment to innovation. As a series born to enhance the technology transfer from the race track to the road, PIT BOOST marks a step change for consumer vehicles and the future potential of EV performance."
Marek Nawarecki, Senior Circuit Sport Director, FIA, said, "Following a comprehensive testing programme, we are glad to once again be able to push the boundaries of electric mobility with the introduction of PIT BOOST. Part of the FIA technical and sporting regulations, this pioneering new feature will add another strategic element to the sport, and underscores the FIA's steadfast commitment to developing evermore advanced "race-to-road" technologies, an approach that is perfectly exemplified by the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship."
As Formula E continues to take the lead in advancing electric mobility, the PIT BOOST exemplifies the rapid progress in EV charging technology. This technology addresses key challenges in EV adoption: charging speed and time. It also reinforces Formula E's unique position as a "race-to-road" technology platform.
The PIT BOOST has undergone extensive testing and simulation to ensure its safety, reliability, and race-enhancing potential.
