Bristol, UK, 27th November 2024

Dynisma Ltd.® has signed an agreement to supply its world-leading simulator technology to Nissan Formula E Team ahead of Season 11 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.

The Paris-based electric racing team will benefit from the low latency and super high bandwidth of Dynisma’s DMG-1 system to optimise vehicle setup, enhance race performance, and support driver preparation for each race on the calendar. The simulator will also contribute significantly to the ongoing development of the team’s electric race car package, playing a crucial role in pushing the boundaries of performance ahead of future seasons.

Nissan has a strong history in Formula E, having entered the championship in Season 5 (2018/19). Over the years, the team has demonstrated its competitive edge with multiple podium finishes and race victories, solidifying its reputation in the all-electric racing series and showcasing the manufacturer’s innovation in electric vehicle technology.

Tommaso Volpe, Managing Director and Team Principal, Nissan Formula E Team said: “The simulator is one of the most important tools for any Formula E team, so it is extremely important to have the best technology. With limited track time at each event, our drivers spend several hours in the simulator to prepare and acclimatise to each circuit on the calendar. Dynisma is a world leader in this field, so it was natural to partner with them. We are committed to Formula E until at least 2030 and are serious about being competitive in the championship. Our move to the new Paris-based facility has already provided significant benefits, and the upgraded simulator is the latest step.”

Dorian Boisdron, Team Director, Nissan Formula E Team, said: “We’re confident that the new simulator will help take us to another level. After a successful Season 10 and a firm plan for Season 11, all of our focus is on keeping improving further and optimizing all our operations promptly for GEN4, and this partnership will be a vital one. Dynisma’s technology is fully adapted to the technical specificities of motorsport and will enhance our race preparation and support driver training. This is one of our main projects for the upcoming year, so we will be working hard to ensure everything is in place and ready to go ahead of the 2025/26 season.”

Christina Mañas Fernandez, Head of Performance and Simulation, Nissan Formula E Team, said: “Simulation is key in our engineering work ahead of a race weekend - not only for drivers’ track learning, but nowadays the Driver-In-The-Loop (DIL) simulator is a vital tool that brings enormous value to our event preparation. With little track time, all efforts made towards improving the accuracy of our simulation environment will only contribute to our success. Dynisma is a leader in the market, and its unparalleled technology will help us make a big step forward by bringing simulation closer to reality and thus unlocking the potential for engineers to exploit the performance envelope of the car through extensive simulation ahead of every race.”

Ashley Warne, CEO & Chief Engineer, Dynisma, said: “Dynisma’s mission has always been to create the world’s most immersive simulators, offering the highest bandwidth and lowest latency possible. We are thrilled to become the official simulator partner of Nissan Formula E Team. The electric-racing series represents the pinnacle of EV technology, where innovation, precision, and adaptability are key to success. With our cutting-edge simulator, Nissan’s drivers will benefit from enhanced preparation and optimised car setups, empowering them to excel in a series where every fraction of a second counts and track time is limited. We look forward to supporting their pursuit of victory in this rapidly evolving championship.”
