The FIM E-Xplorer World Cup is coming to India, with the electric motorcycle off-racing series signing a nine-year exclusive partnership with Indian sports management company Kankanala Sports Group. As part of the deal, India will host the upcoming season’s grand finale in November 2024. Additionally, an Indian team will also compete in the series.
Valentin Guyonnet, CEO and co-founder of E-Xplorer, says the series is keen to collaborate with Indian motorcycle manufacturers. “India is on the brink of becoming the world’s leading two-wheel market. Our enduring nine-year partnership is a testament to our commitment to a long-term vision, especially in collaborating with Indian motorcycle manufacturers,” he added.
He also shared that E-Xplorer is looking at setting up a national championship and other grassroots programmes in India too.
While the final location still needs to be confirmed, India will host the 2024 finale scheduled from November 29 to December 1. Further details regarding the Indian team set to participate in the 2024 season, along with its riders, will be shared in the coming weeks.
