The NXT Gen Cup is the world’s first fully electric junior touring car cup. It was founded in 2023 by Fredrik Lestrup and Lestrup Racing Team.
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.
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, but the plan was cancelled and the races held were supporting the 2024 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters.
