How do electric and gas F1 cars compare?
I’m new to competitive motorsport, and I find it very interesting, especially since I plan to buy an electric vehicle. How do electric Formula E and gas-powered F1 cars compare?

Welcome to the wild world of top-performing cars. Gas-powered F1 cars still outperform electric Formula E when compared.
To the average person, the difference between F1 and Formula E might be hard to spot, but they are very different. Internal combustion engines power F1 cars. All the vehicles feature the same power units, brakes, gearboxes, and tires. Formula E is new to the world of motorsports and features single-seater
all-electric
cars powered by batteries. Here are some notable differences between the two:
Formula E
- It uses a fully electric powertrain and a 250kW battery
- Reaches maximum speeds of 280km/hr
- Can accelerate from 0-100km/h in 2.8 seconds
F1
- Gas-powered
- Top speeds of up to 397km/h
- Can accelerate from 0-100km/h in 2.6 seconds
Electric cars have made quite the leap in performance, both in Formula E and on the market. So you won’t be short of excellent options as you shop for your new EV.
