Come rain or shine

Elsewhere in the issue, we have some in-depth coverage of the Formula E season, which at the time of writing, is gearing up for its season finale in London. When this issue is published, we’ll have a new Formula E World Champion and the first of the Gen3 era. As it stands, Jake Dennis leads the Drivers’ Standings and we could soon have our very first British FE champion. You can find our FE coverage on page 11 -14, and be sure to check out our Extreme E feature on page 15 as well to keep right up to date with all your electric motorsport news!

We also have a review of Electrogenic’s incredibly elegant Jaguar E-Type, which has been repowered and transformed for the new era of electrification. It’s easy to see why it was described by Enzo Ferrari as the most beautiful car in the world, and you can read the full review of Electrogenic’s E-Type on page 17.

What a month it’s been! One of the many perks of my job, and working within this burgeoning industry, is that there are lots of events and competitions to attend, and July was packed full of places to go and things to see.

First of all, we flew out to Monaco for the annual Energy Boat Challenge to see alternatively powered boats, of all shapes and sizes, competing in a variety of formats. It was a great display of innovation and a glimpse into the future. We have a four-page breakdown of the whole event on page 21 – 24.

The weather in Monaco was idyllic but, back home in the UK, the rain poured and poured and poured, which did scupper our plans to visit Goodwood Festival of Speed. I had planned to attend on the Saturday, but due to the strong winds, the event was cancelled. However, although I wasn’t there in person, I was keeping across all the socials to find out which cars were on display, and we’ve listed the top ten electric vehicles at Goodwood FOS on page 27 -32.

As always, we also have our interview feature, a look at the latest electric cars being released, as well as all our other bits and bobs, including an article on EV etiquette! At Turning Electric, we also bring you the latest news and views from the world of sustainability with our Electric Home section, so be sure to catch up on all of that at the back of the issue!
