  • Toyota and the RallyOne Project are among three manufacturers preparing new Rally1 cars for the 2027 World Rally Championship season.
  • The Spanish project plans to debut in April, while developing its own engine and monitoring the driver market.
  • The team’s preparations raise the question of whether it can challenge the established leaders of the rally world.

A new WRC project is preparing to enter the 2027 season, but the key question is whether it can genuinely take on Toyota and the other giants of the rally world.

Three manufacturers currently plan to start the season with new Rally1 cars. Alongside Toyota, the field includes RallyOne Project, a collaboration between Spain’s motorsport federation, RFEDA, and RMC Motorsport.

The project plans to come to the stages in April. It is also developing its own engine and keeping a close eye on the driver market. Those plans point to an effort that extends beyond simply building a car.

Whether the combination will be enough to compete with the leading teams remains uncertain. The project now faces the challenge of turning its preparations into a package capable of fighting at the front.
