A showcase of the E1 electric powerboat series occurred on the Thames, with plans for a future race in London. The raceboats utilize fully electric propulsion and hydrofoil technology, reaching speeds over 55mph. The UIM E1 World Championship features nine teams racing the custom E1 RaceBirds across four continents, backed by celebrities like Will Smith and LeBron James. E1 CEO Rodi Basso expressed hopes for a London race, emphasizing the city's iconic status and its value as an international racing venue. Following the showcase, the RaceBirds will proceed to Monaco for the season's fifth race.
The electric raceboats combine fully electric propulsion with pioneering hydrofoil technology to 'fly' above the water at speeds of more than 55mph.
The UIM E1 World Championship sees nine teams racing in the specially created E1 RaceBirds - across four continents.
It would be amazing to race here. Let's say that we feel a light, gentle pressure in this short run that we are doing tomorrow.
London is not even England, it's not even Europe; London is the world. It's a super iconic city.
