### Team changes

- Nio left Formula E after the prior season's end and fully rebranded to ERT Formula E Team for 2024 after new investment.

### Driver changes

- Robin Frijns' contract with ABT CUPRA for 2024 would be terminated, the team opting to reunite with Lucas di Grassi, who won the 2016–17 championship with the team.
- Sam Bird left Jaguar Racing after three seasons with the team. Nick Cassidy switched to the team from Envision Racing to partner Mitch Evans.
- After Frijns' contract with ABT Cupra was terminated, he returned to Envision Racing in the place of Jaguar-bound Cassidy.
- McLaren announced that René Rast had departed the team after spending a season with them. Bird was announced as his replacement after he departed Jaguar.
- Oliver Rowland rejoined Nissan after having spent two seasons at Mahindra Racing from his original four seasons with Nissan. This saw Norman Nato leave the team after one year with the manufacturer.
- André Lotterer left Andretti Autosport and Formula E after six seasons. Former Nissan driver Nato stepped in as his replacement.
- After six years together, Edoardo Mortara left Maserati MSG Racing and was replaced by previous Mahindra reserve driver Jehan Daruvala. Mortara joined Mahindra in place of the Cupra-bound di Grassi.
- After a year away, 2020-21 series champion Nyck de Vries returned to the sport with Mahindra to replace Roberto Merhi.

#### Mid-season

McLaren driver Sam Bird sustained a hand injury in a crash during the opening practice session of the Monaco ePrix. He withdrew from the event and was replaced by McLaren reserve and development driver Taylor Barnard, who already drove for the team in the rookie practice session ahead of the Misano ePrix and became the youngest driver to start a race in Formula E. Bird's injury means he will also be forced to miss the Berlin E-Prix double-header, with Barnard continuing to deputize.

Multiple drivers will miss the Berlin E-Prix double-header because of a calendar clash with the FIA World Endurance Championship's 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps. Both Envision Racing drivers will prioritize their WEC commitments and will be replaced by GT driver Joel Eriksson, whose last Formula E race was for Dragon / Penske in the 2020–21 season, and Hitech Pulse-Eight Formula 2 driver Paul Aron. Mahindra Racing's Nyck de Vries will also miss Berlin to race in WEC, with the team instead fielding their reserve and development driver Jordan King. ABT CUPRA will also once again use the services of their reserve driver Kelvin van der Linde to replace Nico Müller.

Nissan driver Oliver Rowland fell ill ahead of the Portland ePrix. He was replaced by the team's reserve driver, Indy NXT competitor Caio Collet, who made his series debut.
