Team changes

  • All ten teams from the first season intended to compete in season two, with some name changes due to sponsorship changes or manufacturer cooperations.[26]
  • Eight teams became manufacturers and produce components either by themselves or with a technology partner: Abt (with Schaeffler), Andretti, e.Dams (with Renault) Mahindra, NEXTEV, Trulli (with Motomatica), Venturi, and Virgin (with DS/Citroën).[26] On 25 August 2015, Andretti decided to retain the powertrain from the previous season.[16]
  • After failing to pass scrutineering of their new drivetrain for the first two races, Trulli withdrew from the championship, leaving 9 teams to compete for the rest of the season.[27]
