History
The NXT Gen Cup was created in 2023 as the world's first all-electric junior touring car series to provide a platform for young drivers, both male and female, to develop their racing careers in a sustainable and accessible way. It aims to bridge the gap between karting and professional racing, offering an "arrive-and-drive" package to ensure equal machinery and lower costs for competitors.[2]
On 8 February 2024 it was announced that NXT Gen Cup would run as a support of the 2023–24 Formula E World Championship during four rounds,[3] but the plan was cancelled and the races held were supporting the 2024 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters.[4][5]
