Season 11 Wraps Up at ExCeL with GEN3 Evo iON Race Tyre Facing the Ultimate Test
- The 2025 London E-Prix signals the end of Formula E’s 11th season, with the Teams’ Champion still to be crowned after Oliver Rowland sealed the Drivers’ title in Berlin
- Hankook’s GEN3 Evo iON Race delivers consistent performance on Formula E’s unique indoor-outdoor track, coping with complex elevation and lighting conditions

Hankook Tire & Technology (Hankook), operating under the global Hankook & Company Group banner, arrives in London to help bring the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship Season 11 to a spectacular close. On 26 and 27 July, ExCeL London will host the final two races—Races 15 and 16—offering one last burst of speed and strategy to decide the Teams’ standings.
Unlike any other track in the championship, the London circuit flows through both the indoor halls and the outdoor docks at the Royal Docks. At just over 2km, it manages to pack in 20 corners, shifting gradients, and lighting contrasts that push both drivers and tyres to their limits. Hankook’s GEN3 Evo iON Race tyre has proven its mettle throughout the season—and now faces its greatest challenge.
The 2025 London E-Prix will also celebrate this season’s champions. While Oliver Rowland has already secured the Drivers’ World Championship following his victory at the 2025 Hankook Berlin E-Prix, the Teams’ Championship title remains contested. With the support of Hankook’s tires, Rowland’s Berlin victory solidified his title, showcasing Hankook’s contribution to the competitive environment throughout the season.. The TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team leads with 228 points, with the Nissan Formula E Team close behind at 205 points, setting the stage for a dramatic final weekend.
As the exclusive technical partner and tire supplier of the championship, Hankook’s GEN3 Evo iON Race tire, developed exclusively for Formula E’s GEN3 Evo race cars, will support the crowning of the Season 11 champion in London. The tire’s specially engineered rubber compound and advanced tread profile deliver reliable grip and thermal control, enabling peak performance even across London’s varied surfaces. It also reflects Hankook’s commitment to sustainability, incorporating 35% sustainable materials and supporting a closed-loop recycling process after each race.
Maximilian Günther of DS Penske recently praised the tire for its performance and consistency: “Hankook’s GEN3 Evo iON Race gives me a lot of confidence, especially in varied track and weather conditions. Whether it’s wet patches, fluctuating track temperatures, or tricky surfaces, the grip and consistency really allow us to push the car and stay in control.”
As Season 11 comes to a close, Hankook looks ahead as it continues its journey at the forefront of electric motorsport. With each race, the company not only supports the pursuit of peak performance but also advances innovation and sustainability in global motorsport.
