Lola reveals heritage-inspired blue livery for Formula E Season 13

Lola has revealed a lighter blue livery for its Formula E challenger ahead of Season 13, drawing on the T70 Mk3B that won the 24 Hours of Daytona in 1969. The design was shown on Saturday with the team’s new driver pairing, Robert Shwartzman and Enzo Fittipaldi, at the wheel of the T004.

The British team’s earlier Formula E colours leaned on dark blue and yellow. The updated scheme keeps blue as its main colour but shifts to a lighter shade, with yellow retained on the car’s fin. Lola branding appears on the nose and rear wing, while the driver numbers sit low on the rear wing.

The T004 brings Lola’s heritage into the GEN4 era

The livery connects the team’s present programme to the historic sports car that inspired it. Lola’s new pairing is covered in our reports on Fittipaldi completing the 2027 line-up and Shwartzman joining for the GEN4 era.

Team principal Mark Preston described the coming campaign as an important new phase for both Formula E and Lola. The team entered the championship two years ago with a focus on developing a competitive, efficient car for GEN4, aiming to take on the series’ major manufacturers. Preston sees the Daytona-winning T70 as a fitting reference point for that ambition.

Lola has placed a substantial focus on running its operation from its Silverstone base from Season 13. The team is also set to take the new colours to Circuit del Jarama for pre-season testing, beginning Monday, 16 November.

Two-thirds of the grid have shown their 2027 colours

Lola is the latest team to unveil its design for the 2027 campaign. With the reveal, two-thirds of the Formula E grid have now presented their liveries for the upcoming season.

The team’s reported package has been described as fast but fragile, while Shwartzman and Fittipaldi form the only all-rookie driver line-up on the Season 13 grid. Their results will show whether the T004 can turn Lola’s heritage-led presentation into a competitive start to the new era.
