Performance targets underscore the step. The Gen4 tops 335 km/h, hits 0–100 km/h in about 1.8 seconds, and reaches 200 km/h in 4.4 seconds.

Gen4 targets: over 335 km/h, 0–100 km/h in ~1.8s, 0–200 km/h in 4.4s.

Peak output stands at 600 kW, roughly 815 bhp, representing a major uplift versus the outgoing package.

Ticktum notes a 50% race-mode power increase and permanent all-wheel drive, promising stronger traction and sharper rotation on Goodwood’s mixed-grip climb.

Ticktum: Gen4 delivers 50% more race‑mode power and permanent all‑wheel drive.

The timing is strategic. Goodwood previews Gen4 ahead of its competition debut, shaping expectations for the ruleset and the competitive order in the upcoming Formula E season.

Public running also helps Formula E court new audiences as teams integrate hardware, software, and energy management for the next cycle.

The series’ rollout path, including planned Jeddah milestones for Gen4, frames how manufacturers approach validation and correlation.

Having all generations displayed together gives context on energy recovery limits within Formula E history that define this championship’s development curve.

For Ticktum, the hill offers little margin, but clear optics. A clean push run will underline the car’s launch potential and message discipline.

All four Formula E generations appear together publicly for the first time at Goodwood.

Fans therefore get a concise preview of the machinery that will headline next season, with meaningful data points on acceleration, stability, and driveability.
