The 2024 São Paulo E-PRIX, the fourth round of the 10th season of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, the world's premier electric vehicle (EV) racing competition, of which Hankook Tire & Technology is an official partner, will be held in Brazil on Saturday. 

According to Hankook Tire on Friday, the São Paulo Street Circuit, the second Formula E event held in Brazil, has been redesigned to fit the Formula E race, spanning a total length of 2.93 km with three high-speed straights and 11 corners, set around the Anhembi Sambadrome where the Carnival parade takes place.
