Team changes

British motorsport brand Lola announced its return to top-level motorsport for the first time since the 1997 Formula One World Championship. Lola will enter Formula E developing its own powertrain in cooperation with Yamaha.[1] This partnership will supply powertrains to ABT CUPRA, who had previously used Mahindra powertrains but ended that affiliation.

Driver changes

change

Season 8 champion Stoffel Vandoorne ended his contract with DS Penske after two seasons and joined Maserati MSG Racing in place of Maximilian Günther, who would sign with DS Penske, thereby completing a driver swap between the two Stellantis-owned outfits. Jehan Daruvala's contract at Maserati was also not renewed, with the team instead signing McLaren driver Jake Hughes. To replace Hughes, the team promoted reserve and developmental driver Taylor Barnard to a full time driver.

Andretti announced that Norman Nato would leave the team after a single season. His replacement was announced to be Nico Müller, who left ABT after two seasons with the team. Nato would later announce his return to the Nissan Formula E Team, with whom he last raced in 2023. He replaced Sacha Fenestraz, who left the team after two seasons.
