British motorsport brandLola announced its return to top-level motorsport for the first time since the2006 Champ Car World Series. Lola entered Formula E developing its own powertrain in cooperation withYamaha.[31] This partnership supplies powertrains toABT, who had previously usedMahindra powertrains but ended that affiliation,[18] and the team entered the season as Lola Yamaha ABT Formula E Team.[32]
After just a single year running, ERT Formula E Team was acquired by investment firmThe Forest Road Company. The team rebranded asKiro Race Co and raced under an American license. The team also ceased to be its own manufacturer, forming an agreement with Porsche to use its 2023–24 powertrain instead.[6][33] Ahead of theSão Paulo ePrix weekend,Cupra entered into a partnership with Kiro Race Co to enter the season asCupraKiro.[7] Cupra previously partnered with Abt in the last two seasons of the championship.

TheMiami ePrix was reintroduced to the calendar, the first race in Florida since2015, replacing thePortland ePrix. The event will move from theBiscayne Bay Street Circuit to theHomestead–Miami Speedway, which previously hostedIMSA GT Championship, the one-off Ferrari Winter Series for developmental single-seater drivers, and currently hosts numerous club races. It is unknown which version of the circuit will be used (with or without the banking). Regardless, at 2.18 miles (3.51 km) (without banking) or 2.27 miles (3.65 km) (with banking), it will be the longest Formula E circuit in history.[45]
TheMonaco ePrix will become a double header for the first time in the race's history.[46] TheTokyo ePrix will also be a double-header race.[47]
The championship introduced an upgrade to its Gen3 ruleset, called Gen3 Evo.[48] The updated ruleset features a new chassis package featuring a more robust front wing and new Hankook tyres aimed at providing increased grip. The new car also contains an active front power train to be used in qualifying, the race start and during attack mode, increasing acceleration and power output.[49]
Quick-charging pit stops will be introduced from the Jeddah E-Prix onwards, more than two years after the initial announcement of the feature.[50] The new "Pit Boost", planned to be used in all double-header race weekends of the season requires all drivers to make a mandatory pitstop taking around 30 seconds, during which the cars' batteries will be recharged by around 10%. This pitstop will have to be taken in a certain window in the race, chosen by the race officials prior to the event. No other work on the cars is allowed to be carried out during the quick-charging pitstops, and only one car per team will be able to take this stop.[51]
The Manufacturers' Trophy introduced in season ten became a World Championship title alongside the Teams' and Drivers' titles. Points are awarded in a similar manner to the Teams' title and are based on the performance of each manufacturer's two highest-scoring cars in every race.[4]
The highest-placed two cars per powertrain manufacturer per race score points towards that manufacturer's position in the standings. The cars that do not score any points will not appear in the standings and the points will be allocated to the following Manufacturer’s car eligible to score points. Points allocated for the driver obtaining the Pole Position and the Fastest Lap will not be counted.[55]
