The NIO333FormulaE team has set an ambitious target of becoming a top-three FE team by 2025-26
as one of its drivers for the 2022-23 season, NIO 333 has been testing its ER9 Gen3 car at Varano in Italy, before continuing on to Mallory Park in the UK for further runs.
Asked about NIO 333's chances heading into the Gen3 era, deputy team principal Russell O'Hagan says that the Silverstone outfit had initially targeted eighth in the championship - but feels the potential of the car could offer more. "That may seem ambitious, but it’s only bound by practicalities and ones we have mapped out at each point along the way.
"The recent test in Varano marked the first opportunity for us to benchmark ourselves against the other five manufacturers. It was incredibly positive and exceeded our expectations.
