Electric motorsport batteries appear to be quite tricky as the batteries are required to have an 80g crash rating.
The Formula E gen 3 with the WAE (Williams Advanced Engineering) 47kWh battery 9169MJ) race power of 402hp. Car weighs 760kg/ 1676lbs. Range is claimed as 59 miles/ 94km. Have to see how the Swedish touring cars position on the battery/ range/ performance etc matrix. |

What they didn't mention at the time but was brought up many times by others is that the ICE cars they test there generally return MPG figures in the single figures while being hooned around. People don't think about the huge fuel tanks in proper race cars and the pitstops etc. |
