\The livery showcases a deeper and more aggressive red base, with sharp black sections slicing across the sidepods and engine cover. Crisp white outlines highlighting front wing and aerodynamic features, offering a clean and modern contrast.

The colour scheme has been a staple for the team, as each season passes the colours elevate and become more dominant and vibrant on the liveries. Their reveal campaign was deliberately paced and engaging.

In the days leading up to the full unveil, teasers such as close‑up snapshots of bodywork and cryptic social media posts by the team stirred curiosity. The full reveal showed an updated body of work compared to the previous season and the timing lines up well with the buildup to pre‑season testing.

Mahindra Racing had a strong showing in the 2024/25 Formula E season, securing 4th place in the Teams’ Championship with a total of 186 points. The season was marked by five podium finishes, including a significant milestone during the Miami E-Prix, where the team surpassed 1,000 career points in the championship.

Nyck de Vries led the team individually with 92 points, finishing eighth in the driver standings, while Edoardo Mortara followed closely with 88 points, placing ninth. The highlight of the season occurred in Monaco, where de Vries finished second and Mortara came home in fourth. In the concluding London E-Prix, de Vries achieved two consecutive second place finishes, solidifying Mahindra's impressive overall performance this season.

Nyck de Vries and Edoardo Mortara will continue to race for the team, heading into Season 12, having signed a multi-year contract at the beginning of Season 11.

With pre-season testing on the horizon, Mahindra Racing enters Season 12 with a clear visual identity and a platform of genuine progress from last season - the updated livery may signal a refreshed approach heading into the final stretch of the season before the Gen4 era begins.
