Nissan plans to show off its “world-leading” EV technology by entering a brand-new car in the fifth season of the Formula E electric racing series.

The brand, which has sold more than 365,000 examples of its Leaf electric road car, will draw upon its years of EV development to make an impact in Formula E.

The new car features a custom electric motor, inverter and gearbox.

While a new generation of Formula E cars will be on the grid this season, Nissan will have a chance to showcase what it can do against 10 other teams.

Shell, oddly enough, has partnered with Nissan to make the effort as successful as possible. “We’re delighted to be partnering with a company like Nissan, which shares our commitment to supporting a lower-carbon transportation system,” Jeorg Wienke, VP of global retail marketing for Shell, said.

“Formula E represents the performance side of Nissan’s Intelligent Mobility—our vision for changing how cars are powered, driven and integrated into society,” added Nissan’s global head of marketing, Roel de Vries.

Nissan’s team is called e.dams and will have 2015 and 2016 Formula E champion Sebastien Buemi and Alex Albon behind the wheel. They will undergo three days of testing at Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia, Spain ahead of vying for the checkered flag on December 15th.
