Former Haas Formula 1 driver Esteban Gutierrez has made the switch to Formula E and will debut in 2017.
The Mexican announced his move at a press conference in Mexico City on Monday.
He was replaced at Haas this season by Dane Kevin Magnussen after failing to score a point in 2016.
"I'll do the Mexico race, and probably others in preparation for the 2018 season," he said.
"It's an exciting future for my career. I feel very proud of being a part of this new tendency of electric cars."
