Porsche announced Tuesday that it has claimed both the manufacturers' and drivers' world championship titles for the second consecutive season in the 2025/26 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.
Having swept the team and manufacturers' world championships last season, Porsche successfully defended its manufacturers' title this season as well.
In the drivers' standings, Porsche works team driver Pascal Wehrlein secured his second Formula E drivers' world championship title. Wehrlein topped the overall drivers' standings with a season-high three victories, a joint-best six podium finishes and four pole positions. Jake Dennis of Porsche customer team Andretti Formula E finished second in the drivers' standings.
Florian Modlinger, director of Porsche factory motorsport Formula E, said Pascal's second world championship title and the defense of the manufacturers' title represent yet another remarkable achievement for the Porsche 99X Electric. "This is the result of the combined efforts of every team member who gave their all this season, the passionate support from the factory, and the performance of our Porsche works driver," he said.
The Porsche 99X Electric has now claimed six of the 10 world championship titles available during the Formula E GEN3 era, cementing its place as the most successful single-seater in Porsche AG history and at the pinnacle of electric motorsport. During the GEN3 era, the Porsche Formula E team has recorded 16 victories, with the combined works and customer team total reaching 23 wins.
This year, Porsche is again extending its motorsport success into social responsibility through its Racing for Charity campaign. The company donates 400 euros ($461) for every lap completed by its two works Porsche 99X Electric cars, supporting children with serious illnesses around the world. Cumulative donations to date stand at 449,200 euros, with the final total to be announced at a later date.
The funds will be distributed to Kinderherzchen Retten, Interplast Germany and the Ferry Porsche Foundation.
Meanwhile, Porsche plans to unveil the new Cayenne Coupe Electric in South Korea for the first time in October. The company is actively expanding its lineup — including the recently launched Cayenne Electric — to broaden customer choice.
