Andretti Autosport’s presence in motorsports is significant. Among the many categories in which they participate, they stand out in Extreme E, the 100% electric off-road series where they have been present since the beginning, and now they are preparing to face a new campaign full of challenges and goals to achieve.
They will do so under the name Andretti ALTAWKILAT Extreme E after announcing their partnership with ALTAWKILAT, one of the largest automotive companies in Saudi Arabia, which has been present since season 1 in the category helping and influencing the development of technology for the future.
“ALTAWKILAT has been part of our Extreme E journey since the beginning, so we are happy that our relationship will grow to form Andretti ALTAWKILAT Extreme E, as they share our interest in supporting the series’ mission as a purpose-driven sport,” said Michael Andretti, President and CEO of Andretti Autosport.

Andretti ALTAWKILAT Extreme E in Season 3
Loaded with experience and talent to be protagonists in Extreme E, Andretti is preparing for the third season of the series where it will have, once again, the hands of Catie Munnings and Timmy Hansen as drivers in charge of driving the ODYSSEY 21 on the various stages visited by the category.
In the first season they achieved a victory in the Artic X-Prix, in Greenland, accumulating experience to become stronger and stronger in the series. Now with four podiums, they have enough options to fight at the top of the table for the championship together with Rosberg X Racing and X44.
Thus, the team is looking forward to Extreme E 2023’s debut at the Desert X Prix, to be held next March 11-12 in NEOM, Saudi Arabia, where ALTAWKILAT will launch a community program that will educate the local population about the need to protect the environment, coinciding with Earth Day.
“Like Andretti, ALTAWKILAT’s passion for motorsport runs deep and to do it together in this all-electric form of motorsport is a chapter we look forward to,” added Michael Andretti.
