Exion Racing has become the first team to reveal the car with which they will compete in the new all-electric era of the STCC in 2023, opting for the BMW i4 model.



The Värnamo-based squad will field three BMW i4 cars currently being assembled by EPWR, the company in charge for the electric drivetrain concept set to be introduced in the series next year.

The cars will produce 550 bhp and feature an 800-volt 45 kWh battery. The cars will accelerate from 0-100 km/h in under three seconds.

...

The announcement marks a return of the BMW brand to STCC for the first time since 2015. The German make is one of the most successful in the history of the championship with 74 wins.
