There is some exciting news for Speed Champions fans hitting the airwaves today. The LEGO® Group has teamed up with the Formula E Panasonic Jaguar racing team to produce an all new set. The building kit will contain two Panasonic Jaguar race cars, the Panasonic Jaguar GEN2 and the Jaguar I-Pace eTROPHY.
This new partnership features two LEGO® cars that are based on their real electric racing counterparts. Additionally, one of the real cars will race in season six of the ABB FIA Formula E Championship.
Actual details about the LEGO® set remain a little scant at this time. We don’t even know the price. If I was to speculate, my guess is that this kit will end up being around $40 CAD. Take that with a grain of salt since we don’t know the piece count either. What we do know is the following:
- SET NAME: Formula E Panasonic Jaguar Racing GEN2 car & Jaguar I-Pace eTROPHY
- SET #: 76898
- RELEASE DATE: January 2020
Hopefully more details about the Panasonic Jaguar race cars will materialize soon. In the meantime, feel free to sound off below with your thoughts on the set. You can also read more LEGO® news by clicking here.
Until next time,
