The vehicle is part of the GENBETA live development and innovation project, which aims at exploring new materials and technologies for future EV race and road cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leveraging application development expertise and material science, SABIC supported the design and development of innovative parts of the GENBETA car, which is based on the GEN3 car, helping and enabling the creation of the fastest, lightest, and most powerful and efficient electric car, reinforcing the company\u2019s ambition to accelerating the world\u2019s shift to electrification and carbon neutrality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SABIC\u2019s role in the GENBETA programme and integration in the car form part of the company\u2019s collaborative innovation partnership with the world\u2019s first all-electric FIA World Championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The materials from SABIC integrated into applications of the GENBETA car are highly engineered thermoplastics that enable design freedom through their inherent processing mouldability compared to most other materials. Such thermoplastics can help enhance the car\u2019s aerodynamics, contributing to its acceleration and speed performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The relevant applications include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Front wing endplates \u2013<\/strong>&nbsp;These elements, formed using an additive manufacturing or 3D printing process known as fused deposition modeling, are mounted on the outboard extremities of the vehicle\u2019s front wing. They are integral to redirection of airflow around the front wheels to help reduce drag while contributing to the car\u2019s downforce and stability.<\/li><li><strong>Wheel fins \u2013<\/strong>&nbsp;These components are manufactured through injection moulding with SABIC\u2019s sustainable mechanically-recycled thermoplastics from the portfolio of TRUCIRCLE<sup>\u2122<\/sup>&nbsp;circular materials. These parts are mounted onto the wheel rims in a radial, spoke-like pattern, and are intended to help optimize airflow and reduce aerodynamic drag for higher acceleration and speed performance. As an additional benefit, the fins can increase the car\u2019s overall efficiency and aid in cooling the brakes to improve stopping power.<\/li><li><strong>Wind deflector \u2013&nbsp;<\/strong>This transparent part is a coated thermoplastic sheet product, manufactured through an extrusion process using a bio-renewable, low-carbon material from the TRUCIRCLE portfolio. The component is attached to the front of the cockpit, ahead of the driver, and supports optimization of airflow for decreased drag \u2013 again, contributing to improved speed performance.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As SABIC collaborates with Formula E and its partners, it is drawing on an still-expanding portfolio of thermoplastics developed under dedicated solution platforms for electrification (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sabic.com\/en\/bluehero\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BLUEHERO<sup>\u2122<\/sup><\/a>), and the circular economy (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sabic.com\/en\/sustainability\/circular-economy\/trucircle-portfolio-and-services\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TRUCIRCLE<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First announced as the electric racing series Principal and Innovation Partner in 2022, SABIC intends to continue to work closely with Formula E to develop cutting-edge solutions that will help drive further innovation in electric vehicles technologies and progress in sustainable practices across the sport\u2019s wider ecosystem and operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of its presence at the London E-Prix, SABIC participated in Formula E\u2019s sustainable innovations summit \u2013&nbsp;<em>Change.
