Hyundai 2016 WRC Car Shoots Flames
Hyundai Motorsport is nearing completion of its brand new rally car, the New Generation i20 WRC, with which the team will contest the 2016 FIA World Rally Championship (WRC), its third season of competition. Here is the video of the car undergoing tests.
The New Generation i20 WRC, the successor to the existing i20 WRC car, has undergone a rigorous test and development programme during 2015, completing over 8,000km across several test sessions since March.
The all-new car has been put through its paces on both gravel and tarmac in four separate countries Germany, France, Finland and Spain, running concurrently with Hyundai Motorsport’s successful 2015 WRC campaign.
The team has ramped up the test and development programme for the New Generation i20 WRC from basic tests earlier in the year through to component evaluation, settings and ultimately more recent performance runs. The team has been satisfied with progress and has recently submitted all necessary documentation to the FIA for homologation of the car. Finalisation of the important homologation process is expected this month.
Hyundai Motorsport will formally unveil the New Generation i20 WRC during a presentation at the team’s factory in Alzenau, Germany next Wednesday.
