A new chassis built by Spark Racing Technology for the forthcoming Extreme H hydrogen off-road championship is set to run for the first time in June. The series is expected to begin in 2024 ⬇️

The new series, run by the same organisers as the all-electric Extreme E championship, was announced last February andExtreme E chief championship officer James Taylor told Autosport that French manufacturer SRT, which currently supplies XE and sister series Formula E, would build a new chassis for Extreme H that he described as “a generation two” evolution to accommodate a hydrogen fuel cell and accompanying systems.

“We’re working with Spark again. Obviously Spark we’ve had great success with on the Formula E car and the Extreme E car, so it was a natural progression to work with them on Extreme H as well.” Extreme E already uses hydrogen energy stations to power its travelling paddock at events, which Taylor said had given the organisation and its key stakeholders confidence in the technology.

McLaren entered Extreme E for 2022, while Formula 1 world champions Lewis Hamilton, Nico Rosberg and Jenson Button have backed teams since the start of the championship in 2021.
