Otherwise it becomes who has the better funding to afford the best engineering team and money for the lightest and strongest parts.

"From season two, Formula E will operate as an 'open championship', allowing teams and manufacturers the opportunity to showcase their own electrical energy innovations. Working to the technical specifications set out by the FIA, teams will focus their efforts on improving and developing powertrains and battery technology, with the aim of this filtering into the everyday electric vehicle market." http://www.fiaformulae.com/en/guide/overview.aspx http://www.fiaformulae.com/en/guide/overview.aspx
