Layout
The track was {{cvt|2.236|km|mi|abbr=on}} in length and featured 11 turns. Prior to the race, it was decided to treat the track surface with a resin-type material, in a bid to prevent a repeat of the previous round in Santiago, which saw the track break up during the race due to the high temperatures.{{Cite web|url=https://www.autosport.com/fe/news/142277/sanya-track-treated-to-avoid-santiago-repeat|title=Formula E's Sanya track specially treated to avoid Santiago repeat|website=Autosport.com|language=en|access-date=2019-04-14}}
