The next generation Formula E race car will be unveiled on Tuesday but the ‘batman-like’ machine was teased over several social media channels on Monday afternoon.

The Batmobile reference has been made by series CEO Alejandro Agag and the teasers revealed a car with a wider nosecone, single-plane front wing and front wheel covers. It also will utilize the Halo divice. The curtains on the full rendering will be made public on Tuesday and the physical reveal is set for the Geneva Motor Show in March.

This new car will bring an end to the widely criticized mid-race driver swaps.

Spark Racing Technologies won the rights to produce the car, which will be powered by a McLaren Applied Technologies battery. It replaces previous battery supplier Williams Advanced Engineering.
