Australia and Hong Kong are set to join the Formula E calendar for season three of the series according to Motorsport.com.
The two events are set to take place during the early part of season three with Montreal expected to be the season opener in late 2016.
The potential location for the Australian ePrix is likely to be in Sydney which is expected to take place in November 2016.
Formula E CEO Alejandro Agag told Motorsport.com that they have had several talks with Hong Kong and Australia, but nothing has been confirmed as of yet.
“Probably the first race in season three will be Montreal, and then we go to Asia where we have had very good conversations with Hong Kong, but nothing is announced yet.
“We are talking to two cities in Australia, which will bolt on to the Asian leg at the end of the year. Then we plan to go from Australia to South America.”
Agag added he hopes Formula E can race in New York and Tokyo in the future.
“We are having some conversations with New York. It is a good long-term prospect,” said Agag.
“I went to Tokyo where we did the demo last month and met with the governor of Tokyo and it was an excellent meeting.
“They are very keen and we are looking at going through the processes there, but it looks very good.”
