DS Automobiles, the first premium manufacturer involved in the Formula E championship, has been breaking record after record ever since the electric-only competition was opened to manufacturers. Having already won two championships in 2018-2019 with DS Techeetah and Jean-Eric Vergne, the brand held onto both titles this season with DS Techeetah and Antonio Félix da Costa. For the first time, these titles were won before the last round of the calendar.
DS Automobiles now holds the record for most consecutive titles (Two Teams and Two Drivers), most pole positions (13) and most first row positions for a single team (two with DS TECHEETAH). DS Automobiles is also the only manufacturer to win ePrix races every year since 2016.
At the end of the 2019-2020 season, with four wins, nine podium finishes, five pole positions and three fastest laps across eleven ePrix; the DS E-Tense FE20s beat out the Nissan IM02, the Mercedes-Benz EQ Silver Arrow 01, the Audi e-tron FE06, the BMW i.FE20, the Jaguar I-Type IV, the Porsche 99X Electric, the Mahindra M6Electro, the PENSKE EV-4 and the NIO FE-005. Never has one team (+ 77 points) and one driver (+ 71 points) finished the season so far out ahead of the competition.
