The idea is that they drive half the race in one car until the battery goes flat, and then jump into the second car for the second half of the race.
It may be just me, but doesn't this format just draw attention to the one big problem with electric cars? Odd marketing strategy....

Never thought about that... and I'm sure they didn't either!
Another odd thing: the Formula E website and wiki page states that tracks will be between 2.5-3.0 kilometers long. That's quite a short track for 42 cars, especially on narrow city streets. Plus that's quite a narrow bit of wiggle room.
