The 2016 Long Beach ePrix was a Formula E electric car race held on 2 April 2016, before a crowd of 17,000 spectators, at the Long Beach Street Circuit, in Long Beach, California. It was the sixth round of the 2015–16 Formula E Championship, and the final Long Beach ePrix. The 41-lap race was won by Lucas di Grassi for Audi Sport ABT from second place. Venturi driver Stéphane Sarrazin finished second, with Di Grassi's teammate Daniel Abt third.
António Félix da Costa (pictured in 2013) set the fastest lap time in super pole but started from the rear of the field due to irregular pressure in his left-rear tire.
Sam Bird (pictured in 2015) started from the pole position and led the opening eleven laps of the event.
Lucas di Grassi (pictured at the following 2016 Paris ePrix) led a race-high 29 laps to secure his third career victory.
