The Jaguar I-Type 08 swaps out the team's previous colours for a striking, predominantly blue livery finished in French Ultramarine Blue. The shade is drawn directly from the customer colour palette of the Jaguar Type 01, the marque’s new all-electric GT launched in October, and represents the technology pillar of Jaguar’s new brand identity.
Capable of reaching speeds in excess of 335kph, 0-100kph in approximately 1.8 seconds, and 0-200kph in just 4.4 seconds - 1.5 seconds faster than its predecessor - GEN4 will deliver 50% more power in race mode than the current GEN3 Evo race car. The GEN4 car will be an average of 10 seconds faster per lap than the GEN3 car in qualifying mode. In ATTACK MODE, GEN4 produces up to 600kW of power, a 71% increase in base output over GEN3 Evo, delivering performance that pushes the limits of electric racing. GEN4 is the only single-seater race car with permanent all-wheel drive.

The team heads into 2027 (and the GEN4 era) with a formidable line-up, featuring two former Formula E champions - António Félix da Costa and Stoffel Vandoorne. Between them, the pair boast 264 race starts, 18 victories, 49 podiums, and 16 pole positions.
António Félix da Costa, Jaguar TCS Racing driver #13, said: “It is an honour to launch Jaguar TCS Racing’s first car of the GEN4 era – the Jaguar I-Type 08. The look and feel of the race car is amazing and I cannot wait to push it to the limit on track. Developing a new car is always very exciting; you have to be creative and brave when seeking performance and it is up to us to bring it all together this season.
“It is such an exciting time for Formula E as a championship, and I am grateful to be a part of it with Jaguar TCS Racing. Winning the Teams’ world title in my first season with the team was something I am extremely proud of in such a competitive championship, and all of us cannot wait to go again with the Jaguar I-Type 08.”
Stoffel Vandoorne, Jaguar TCS Racing driver #5, said: “To be part of Jaguar TCS Racing at the start of the GEN4 era is a great feeling. As test and reserve driver for the team last season, I carried out a lot of mileage developing the Jaguar I-Type 08 and so to race it is going to be extra special.”
“GEN4 is probably going to be the biggest change in Formula E’s history in terms of the performance increase, the technology now available to us and just how complex the cars are. It is going to be a big learning curve for everyone, but I feel like we have a very strong team to get on top of what is required for GEN4, and so I cannot wait to get started with Jaguar TCS Racing this season.”
