Running thread: All the liveries revealed for Formula E’s Gen4 era
The clock ticks down to Formula E’s highly anticipated Gen4 era. With pre-season testing only a week away, teams and drivers are eagerly looking ahead to the upcoming test sessions in Jarama with a wave of enthusiasm.
Amidst Formula E's step into the unknown, teams still have last stops to make. Some have one last round of testing to carry out; others are yet to announce drivers for the upcoming season. More than half the Formula E grid, though, are yet to reveal the hues they will carry for the upcoming campaign.
A total of five teams have unveiled striking liveries for the upcoming season, and more are expected to do so in the coming days.
You can track all the liveries for Season 12 in this thread here:
Andretti to unveil Gen4 livery on November 10
Is it that time of year? Yes, it is.
Tuesday, November 10, 2026, will now feature two teams revealing their liveries for the upcoming campaign.
Andretti have joined Jaguar in choosing a date for their livery reveal. The American team revealed a teaser on their social media platforms, hinting at the date of choice in their posts.
The American team have predominantly run a tricolour livery featuring red, white and blue on their cars, paying homage to the wider Andretti brand colours. They switched to red and black at the beginning of Season 12, under the new ownership of TWG Motorsport. This reflected the changing ownership trends for the wider Andretti Global conglomerate.
This red and black hue then transitioned into bright yellow and black ahead of their event on home soil in Miami, a livery they have sported ever since. Andretti ran one special livery during the season, carrying the colours of the iconic Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 in a special Liberty Walk livery.
The American outfit sported these hues at the Tokyo E-Prix, ahead of announcing their partnership with Nissan as powertrain suppliers for the Gen4 era.
Jaguar to unveil Gen4 livery on November 10
Jaguar will be the next team to reveal their livery for the upcoming season. And the British squad may just be throwing it back to their roots for the Gen4 era.
The reigning constructors' champions have sported a dual-tone livery featuring white and black on their Gen3 challengers. However, they have teased lightning blue on their livery in social media posts, ahead of their livery reveal on November 10, 2026.
Jaguar have run shades of blue on their Gen2 challengers over the years, with the early cars sporting a lighter blue alongside black paint.
An all-new shade of blue is being looked at for the upcoming era, signifying the team's evolving hues at the beginning of every generation of Formula E car.
Alongside their car, Jaguar have teased yet more: A hint at their second driver for the season. A hand is placed on the car in their latest social media post, carrying the caption, "🔵 Jaguar I-Type 08, Coming November 10, 2026."
While Jaguar have remained quieter in the off-season, they have looked more settled on the driver replacing Mitch Evans at the team for the Gen4 era. This figure leading the race is reserve driver Stoffel Vandoorne, who has been present at the team's recent tests in the off-season.
Fortescue Zero reveal Gen4 challenger at star-studded event in Shoreditch Electric, London
Newcomers Fortescue Zero have become the fifth team to reveal their livery for the upcoming season. The Australian-owned squad unveiled their shades at an event in Shoreditch Electric in London on Friday, November 6, 2026.
Team principal Jim Wright, founder Andrew Forrest and CEO Gus Pichot were present at the event and addressed the audience on the day. Former Williams team boss Claire Williams hosted the event, with the Williams family close to Fortescue Zero. The latter is essentially a rebranding of Williams Advanced Engineering (WAE) after its acquisition in 2022.
Dan Ticktum was also present and arrived in a new black and green race suit to chat with team principal Jim Wright on stage. Most notably, Taylor Barnard was absent from the event, with a late contractual dilemma affecting his future at the team.
Fortescue Zero unveiled their livery, inspired by the topography of their first-ever green mine in the Pilbara region. The livery contained traditional Fortescue Zero green and black, paying homage to Sir Frank Williams and Andrew Forrest, founders of the respective entities.

Cupra Kiro unveil livery at Paris Motor Show, announce new driver
Cupra Kiro became the fourth team to reveal their livery for the upcoming Gen4 era, doing so at the Paris Motor Show on Monday, 12 October 2026.
The American-owned British squad took the covers off a striking livery, evolving on their traditional colour scheme of brown and yellow from the Gen3 era, incorporating the brown of Cupra and the fluorescent yellow of Kiro.
Captioned, "Copper load of this new livery," the team attempted a play on words of the British saying, "Cop a load of this", as well as its new copper-coloured livery for the upcoming season.
The livery features a copper-coloured nose cone, stretching onto the bodywork. It then transitions into an aggressive prism-like design on the bargeboards, before the same pattern continues in black onto the rear of the car.
It features an aggressive transition, much like the one the team are aiming to make into the Gen4 era. Alongside their livery reveal, the team also announced their driver line-up for the upcoming campaign.
Jake Hughes replaces the outgoing Dan Ticktum in the squad, joining forces with Pepe Martí to mark a fresh chapter in the team's history. The Briton had served as Mahindra's reserve driver for Season 12, having left Maserati at the end of a difficult Season 11.
“I’m over the moon to be joining CUPRA KIRO. It feels like it’s been a long time coming. The team has built the foundations of something very special, and hopefully, we can kick on and bring even more success," Hughes expressed in his announcement for the upcoming season.

Opel reveal striking Gen4 livery for maiden campaign, ahead of Paris Motor Show
Newcomer Opel have become the third team to reveal a livery for the upcoming campaign. The German squad made a statement of intent, sporting a fluorescent light green testing livery all through.
They have also made several high-profile announcements, with Mitch Evans moving over from Jaguar to drive for them in Season 13, alongside the decorated Théo Pourchaire. The Frenchman will make his Formula E debut this season. The team also announced Sophia Flörsch as a Development Driver for the future back in April.
Their livery for the upcoming season will feature a sleek transition from the old to the new. The front features a yellow nose cone, giving way to sleek silver on the bodywork, replicating the air flow across a Formula E car.
This then gives way to black on the sidepods and bargeboard, a homage to Opel's history in sports car racing and rallying, when they used to sport a black livery.
The livery then sports the yellow of Opel all the way to the rear, a nod to the recent electric advancements made by the team, the same hues sported as the Opel Mokka GSE used in an eponymous one-make rallying cup.
Termed "Heritage meets the future," it is a unique livery with a fusion of Opel's history in motor racing and their desire to carry forward the legacy into a new era.

Envision Racing unveils unique hues on rebranded Gen4 challenger
Envision Racing have become the second team to unveil their livery for the upcoming season of racing. The British squad will continue to sport the traditional green on their challenger, albeit with a few changes this time around.
The team's livery features less green this time around, but is flanked by a greater amount of navy blue stretching across its front nose cone and sidepods. White also makes its appearance on the bodywork, marking a unique, balanced livery for the team.
The team completed its livery reveal in Jacksonville, Florida, at the headquarters of title sponsor Paysafe, a new addition bolstering the team into the upcoming era of racing.
Maximilian Günther joins the squad, moving over from the departing DS Penske squad, and he will be joined by rookie Zak O'Sullivan. The British youngster served as the team's simulator driver in Seasons 11 and 12, and moves over from his stint at Super Formula with Team Impul.
Both drivers replace the outgoing duo of Joel Eriksson and Sébastien Buemi, the latter taking up an advisory role within the setup as he steps back to focus on his campaign with Toyota in the World Endurance Championship (WEC).

Citroën Racing unveils striking Tricolore livery for the Gen4 era
Citroën Racing have become the first team to take the covers off their livery for the upcoming season. The French outfit initially revealed a more striking livery, with a greater presence of red on their car for the upcoming campaign.
The livery had been developed around the brand's iconic double chevron signature, with the team describing it as a 'camouflage livery' and a "layered visual effect that reveals itself progressively" as a viewer gets closer to the car.
This camouflage livery featured a greater amount of red across the car, serving as an expressive livery before the bigger reveal later in the year.
The French manufacturer unveiled its Gen4 livery on September 28, 2026. This livery serves as an evolution of its maiden Season 12 colours, carrying forward the legacy of the iconic French flag. Blue dominates the front nose and spreads across the bargeboards, before a splash of white sits across the driver's cockpit. This is shaped in the form of the Citroën logo.
A splash of red then features towards the rear of the car, rounding out a very patriotic undertone carried forward by the team from its maiden campaign.
The French outfit have retained their existing driver line-up of Nick Cassidy and Jean-Éric Vergne, while Beth Paretta takes over a dual role of Team Principal and Managing Director. Frederic Espinos moves over from Lola to take over the role of Deputy Team Principal, in a reshuffle brought about by the sudden death of former team principal Cyril Blais.
