ABB Formula E set to debut in Hyderabad E-Prix

With the inaugural Hyderabad E-Prix this weekend, the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship will have its first race in India.

The 18-turn, 2.835km circuit winds around the streets of Hyderabad, alongside the Hussain Sagar lake.

Daniela Lužanin, Head of the ABB Formula E partnership speaking on the occasion said: “The Hyderabad E-Prix is a great opportunity to showcase the future of e-mobility to a new market – one of ABB’s largest - particularly given our role as Official Charging Partner. Although it is a new market for the Championship, ABB has been a key player in driving progress in India over the past 100 years.”

“The hosting of the ABB Formula E FIA World Championship in India is well aligned with our nation’s growing importance in the global climate action landscape. The E-Prix host state of Telangana, is also home to our technology, which is present in a wide range of projects, helping to increase energy efficiency, improve reliability and provide better access to clean drinking water”, further added Sanjeev Sharma, Country Managing Director, ABB India.
