The High Voltage is a Flashback Event in Real Racing 3. It gives players the chance to win the Renault Z.E.16.
The High Voltage is part of Round 7, Season 4 of Ligier JS P320 Update (v13.4), and can be accessed through the Round Hub button on the Home tab.

This Event is available to start on Saturday, June 7th, 2025, during the Ligier JS P320 Update (v13.4), until the Round ends on Monday, June 30th, 2025 at 20:00 UTC. When the Round ends, the Event will be locked, unless the Event has been started before the end of the Round and the 9-day term is not over. Acquiring the car unlocks the Event, and completion rewards are obtainable still.
Since the player has owned the car, the Event is available for completion, until the Round is expired[1] on (provisional) Tuesday, December 30th, 2025.

This is a recommended[2] PR event, so the player is allowed to enter any race regardless of the car's PR.

The Event consists of nine Stages. The next Stage unlocks immediately after the previous stage is completed.

The player is granted with free and instant car service and instant upgrades R&D, which are available within 3 hours of entering the Event, before the end of the Round[3].

Formula E
[]

Quote Michael
Have you ever heard of Formula E? Well, you better pay attention. A new all–electric open wheel motorsport, Formula E's pushing forward what it means to be a racer, and a fan of racing in general!

Now, listen up, sport-Formula E are holding an open qualifying event in Melbourne before the next season. The top two finishers will score a position in the grid for the Hong Kong ePrix! And I've got you a spot.

Stage 02
Charge Your Battery
[]

Quote Michael
We've got a big day ahead of us–it's time for you to learn about your car's battery. Formula E all revolves around a car's energy system–run out of battery power during a race, you're done for.

The cars are not designed to have much juice, but you can regenerate power and extend your stint by coasting well before a corner. We'll switch you to Manual Controls, and remove Brake Assists.

Race for the FanBoost
[]

Quote Natalia
Are you READY?! You've gotta be psyched for this, champ, because we're here to hype up your fans and get them to vote. On what? Well the FanBoost of course!

That's right–up until 6 minutes into a Formula E race, the fans get to vote on their favourite driver. The winner of the FanBoost gets a secret weapon–a burst of supercharged energy during the race!

And we're back! Melbourne and Hong Kong are both street circuits, so let's give them a taste of what's to come by not going off-track at all today, shall we? That's right–only clean, respectable driving.

Melbourne Open Qualifier

Quote Natalia
Here we are in sunny Melbourne–that is, if the weather can hold out for a moment! We should be getting the results of the FanBoost once the race starts, so I'll keep you up to date. Oh, hey, Zoé's here!
— Natalia, Agent
Quote Zoé
Hello there! I didn't realise you were racing today. I've been sponsored by ABT Schaeffler Audi Sport, so I guess we're rivals. And I had a pretty good fan day yesterday, so don't count on that FanBoost!
— Zoé
Quote Michael
Even if we don't get the FanBoost, we've been to work mastering the fundamentals of Formula E. Don't worry, sport–we've got this one in the bag.
