Two-time Wimbledon Champion, Andy Murray, has fulfilled the promise he made during WWF’s World Earth Hour to ‘go electric’ and become one of the world’s first Jaguar I-PACE customers on World Environment Day. Supporting the commitment Murray made to switch to Jaguar’s first all-electric performance SUV in March this year, Panasonic Jaguar Racing driver and fellow WWF ambassador, Nelson Piquet Jr, visited the British tennis star at his training camp and made a special delivery ahead of the grass court season.
Panasonic Jaguar Racing driver Nelson Piquet Jr endured a dramatic crash at the Mexico City E-Prix but stepped out his Jaguar I-TYPE 3 unharmed, while Mitch Evans brought his racecar over the line in seventh for a six-point finish.
Panasonic Jaguar Racing unveiled the all-new Jaguar I-TYPE 3 second-generation Formula E racecar at the Design Museum, London. The bold new design pushes the boundaries of innovation and technology, showcasing the future of electric motor racing. Panasonic Jaguar Racing have developed their entire powertrain in-house, reinforcing the team’s mission – ‘Race to Innovate’. These bespoke Jaguar components consist of the motor generator unit (MGU), silicon carbide module invertor, transmission, cooling system, suspension, motor control unit (MCU) and new powertrain control software. The advanced MGU revs in excess of 30,000 RPM, more than double the rate of a 2018 Formula 1 car, enabling the Jaguar I-TYPE 3 to accelerate from 0-100 KPH in 2.8 seconds.
