Tokyo will host a round of Formula E in 2024. The race on March 30 will mark the first FIA-sanctioned world championship motor sport event to be held in the Japanese capital.
“The Tokyo metropolitan government is accelerating actions in all realms to realise Zero Emission Tokyo, [for] an environmentally advanced city that does not emit carbon dioxide,” said city governor Yuriko Koike. “Formula E is held in major cities around the world as a road race for electric vehicles which do not emit exhaust gas or engine noise.”
