Porsche Secures Back-To-Back Formula E Manufacturers’ Titles
How Porsche sealed the championship
Porsche has secured its second consecutive Formula E Manufacturers’ World Championship after the penultimate weekend of the 2025/26 season in Tokyo.
The manufacturer arrived in Japan leading the classification after building its campaign around points scored by its factory team and Porsche-powered customer cars. Results from the two Tokyo races moved the brand beyond the reach of its rivals before the London finale.
The title was confirmed during a dramatic wet second race won by Mahindra’s Nyck de Vries. Porsche factory drivers Pascal Wehrlein and Nico Müller did not need to win the event for the manufacturer to complete the championship, with its season-long total already strong enough to secure the crown.
A chaotic race reshapes the other titles
De Vries climbed from fifth to victory after Mahindra prepared his car for a drying circuit. A well-timed final Attack Mode activation allowed him to move through the leading group before a late red flag interrupted the race.
Nick Cassidy recovered from 13th to finish second for Citroën, while Andretti’s Jake Dennis charged from 17th to third. The podium placed Dennis at the top of the Drivers’ Championship heading into London.
Title contenders Pascal Wehrlein and Mitch Evans failed to score, leaving just five points between the leading three drivers. Jaguar and Porsche also remain closely matched in the Teams’ Championship.
Why it matters
Manufacturers compete across all cars using their powertrain, so this championship measures more than the performance of one factory team. It rewards the combined results, reliability and efficiency of the complete technical package.
Porsche’s success provides a strong conclusion to the GEN3 era as Formula E prepares to introduce the faster and more technically open GEN4 car. The manufacturer has already committed to the new regulations and plans to expand its presence with an additional works entry.
The title also reinforces the strength of Porsche’s electric powertrain programme despite its factory drivers facing a difficult Tokyo weekend.
What to watch out for
- The Drivers’ Championship: Dennis, Evans and Wehrlein are separated by only five points.
- The Teams’ Championship: Jaguar and Porsche remain in contention heading to London.
- The GEN3 farewell: The London double-header will be the final competitive appearance for the current-generation car.
- Porsche’s GEN4 expansion: The manufacturer plans to support three teams from the 2026/27 season.
