Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA Reveals New Liveries

Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA has taken the covers off the liveries that will adorn its two Hypercar entries in the FIA World Endurance Championship this season.

The new colors for the team’s pair of Cadillac V-Series.Rs were revealed in a special launch on Monday at Cadillac City Paris, the GM brand’s “flagship EV store and experience center” located in the heart of the French capital.

Elements of both the previous Hertz Team JOTA liveries that featured on the British squad’s customer Porsche 963s and the works Cadillac liveries seen in both the WEC and IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship are incorporated.

The No. 12 and No. 38 cars sport largely similar designs, except for highlights on the wing mirrors, engine cover, sidepods and rear wing endplates, which are red on the No. 12 car and yellow (with black wing mirrors) on the No. 38 car.

Pere Brugal, managing director and President of GM Europe said: “The unveiling of the Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA V-Series.R livery here at our iconic flagship in Paris reflects Cadillac’s unwavering commitment to innovation and performance on the global stage.

“As we expand our footprint in Europe, this partnership represents a powerful opportunity to showcase Cadillac’s pioneering spirit in one of the most prestigious racing championships in the world.

“We are proud to work alongside JOTA Sport and Hertz to bring our V-Series.R to life and look forward to an exciting season ahead.”

JOTA co-founder David Clark added: “The unveiling of the Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA V-Series.R livery today is the culmination of an enormous amount of hard work and commitment on all sides of this new motorsport family.

“This moment represents more than our aesthetic for the year ahead, it represents the next step for both race-winning, record setting brands within the FIA World Endurance Championship.

“We would like to take this opportunity to thank Hertz for being incredible partners to us on this journey and to show our gratitude to GM/Cadillac for having the belief in us, not just in our ability to perform but also for their trust in the level that we are going to represent one of their most prestigious brands on a global stage.

“We can’t wait to see what we can do together this year!”

Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA revealed its driver roster for the upcoming season last November, with existing Cadillac factory drivers Alex Lynn, Earl Bamber and Sebastien Bourdais joined by JOTA incumbents Will Stevens, Norman Nato and Jenson Button.

However, the exact crews for each car remain unconfirmed.

The new-look squad completed its first full-scale test with the Cadillac V.Series-R last month at Paul Ricard, with all six race drivers taking part.
