FIA proposals for the upcoming W2RC and Baja seasons

Cross-Country Rally

As for the W2RC Regulations, the Cross-Country Rally Regulations were also revised to include adherence to the the FIA Environmental programme. The two-star level of Environmental Accreditation will be compulsory for World Baja Cup organisers when entering the championship, and three-star from 2027. Two-star will be compulsory from 2026 and three-star from 2028 for Regional Baja Cups.

As part of the proposals submitted by the Road Sport Committee, a new, less restrictive set of technical regulations for the Stock group – the former T2 – will allow manufacturers to homologate cross-country vehicles based on modern 4WD standard vehicles, modified to increase their capability and reliability, with a controlled budget for the customers.

With the direction given by FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem, revised technical regulations were also approved for the SSVs – formerly T4 – with the aim to come back to less transformed and more affordable vehicles compared to the current competition cars and to offer a genuinely accessible access class.
