Hughes joined McLaren having spent two years with Mercedes as the German manufacturer’s reserve and development driver during its time in Formula E, before the operation was taken over by McLaren this season.
The Briton immediately impressed on his debut in Mexico City, qualifying third and challenging towards the front before finishing fifth.
He claimed pole in only his third outing in Diriyah and started on pole again in Monaco, where he led briefly before finishing fifth as he finished the season 12th in the drivers’ standings.
“I’m really happy to be remaining with the McLaren Formula E Team for Season 10,” said Hughes.
“The team has been my home for a number of years, and I have loved every minute of it. “We had a bit of a mixed season, but I had a lot of personal highlights which I’m hoping to build upon next year with the team and fight for wins and podiums, which I have no doubt we’ll be able to achieve together. I can’t wait for Season 10.”
Hughes also set a world record ahead of the London season-finale when he posted a new indoor land speed record using a specially modified version of the Gen3 car in a head-to-head with Lucas di Grassi.
“I am excited to be able to share that we will be continuing our relationship with Jake,” added McLaren team principal Ian James.
