About the Nissan IM02 e.dams #22 O. Rowland Formula E Season 5 2019 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Nissan IM02 reproduces Oliver Rowland's #22 e.dams livery from Formula E Season 5 in 2019, the year Nissan became a factory entrant by taking over the long-running e.dams team. Clean, closed-wheel styling and diecast construction mark this as an early piece of electric single-seater collecting.

Formula E's closed-wheel single-seaters look nothing like traditional open-wheel racers, and Nissan's arrival as a factory manufacturer in Season 5 gave the championship one of its most recognisable new liveries.

Minichamps' Diecast Approach to an Electric Single-Seater

The IM02's bodywork differs sharply from a Formula 1 or IndyCar chassis: covered wheels, a smoother underbody, and a front wing shaped more for the series' unique aerodynamic rules than for outright downforce, and Minichamps' diecast tooling reflects that distinct silhouette rather than reusing a generic open-wheel shape. Rowland's number 22 and the e.dams sponsor graphics are tampo-printed for sharp edges, and the model's proportions capture the slightly stubbier, more compact stance Formula E cars carry compared with their combustion-engine counterparts. Diecast construction gives the model real heft, useful for a series whose cars are frequently mistaken for something closer to toy scale given their unusual shape.

Nissan's Factory Arrival in Formula E's Season 5

Nissan stepped into Formula E for Season 5 by taking over the e.dams operation, a team that had run under Renault backing in the championship's earlier years, turning what had been a manufacturer-supported effort into a full factory programme. Rowland drove alongside Sebastien Buemi that season as Nissan established itself in a championship still building its identity as electric racing's top single-seater series. Placed alongside a traditional combustion-era single-seater, this IM02 makes the contrast between motorsport's past and its electric future immediately visible on a single shelf, a contrast likely to become more common as electric liveries multiply in the years ahead.
