(CNN) Under the sunny skies of Sanya last time out, DS Techeetah became the sixth different Formula E team to have a driver top the podium in the six races so far in this wildly unpredictable season.
And it couldn't have been more perfectly timed -- thanks to a scintillating drive from reigning champion Jean-Éric Vergne, the Chinese outfit was able to celebrate an ePrix victory on home soil.
The Frenchman's win, combined with teammate Andre Lotterer's fourth place, helped Techeetah climb into fourth place in the team standings and just two points off top spot.
Techeetah partner DS, which is sponsoring the Formula E team this season, has released its "dream" car the X E-TENSE.
Slated for a 2035 release, the all electric supercar has been designed with two different engines, one for race tracks and one for road use.
It boasts a driverless mode which will allow the passenger to kick back inside the comfy 'cocoon.'
Tesla expect its electric supercar, the Roadster, to be ready as early as next year and claim in will be able to complete 620 miles per charge, while boasting a top speed of 250mph.
The Rimac C_TWO slightly edges the Roadster for speed, boasting a top speed of 258mph, but will do 403 miles in one charge.
Though not a supercar, Aston Martin's Lagonda expects to revolutionize road travel with its vast, luxurious interior. The manufacturer estimates production on its new range of luxury, low-emission vehicles will begin in 2021.

Ahead of Saturday's Rome ePrix, Techeetah will be hoping it can become the first team to win multiple races this season having secured a podium place at the same race last year.
Manufacturer DS, partner and sponsor of Techeetah this season, has also been hard at work away from the track.
And in keeping with Formula E's message of sustainability, DS's supercar of the future -- the DS X E-TENSE -- is now being test driven as the company targets a 2035 release.
DS are aiming for a 2035 release.
Last month, CNN Supercharged presenter Nicki Shields had the chance to drive the futuristic car around the Sanya track.
The unusual asymmetric, three-seat vehicle has been designed with two different engines, one for race tracks and one for road use.
When on the road, driverless mode can be selected and and the passenger can sit inside the car's cosy-looking 'cocoon,' while drivers on the race track are exposed to the elements.
The car's suspension has been engineered by DS Performance -- the technical team behind the manufacturer's Formula E programme -- while the vehicle body is "capable of recovering its original form after an impact," according to DS Automobiles.
