Renault, the holder of 11 F1 World Champion titles, is expressing all its engine-making expertise at Frankfurt with the Power Unit F1 2014 and moving into electric racing, with the new FIA Formula E Championship. The ten teams racing in the competition, which kicks off in September 2014, will drive the Spark-Renault SRT_01E single-seater, co-designed with Renault Sport and world revealed at Frankfurt.

On an initiative from the International Automobile Federation (FIA), the new Formula E  competition is exploring a different path with full-electric, zero-emission single-seaters. The first Formula E Championship will be held from September 2014 to June 2015.
