    Clear win for Lukyanuk/Magalhães in Astorga Rally, on the Swift N5 gravel debut. Over 4m ahead Alonso Fiesta WRC and Diegez Impreza N+. Congrats to the winning crew and ARVidal Racing, the team behind N5 Suzuki project.

    clearly that is not R4 car, more R5+ anyhow, would be interesting to know more about specs of this suzuki, like price if its would be available. as for performance side - we will get some info from Lucky shortly on his facebook
    As I understand this swift uses more subaru internals with suzuki engine, as polish build 'protos' are made with mitsu transmision/engine- could be interesting for some regional championships!

    Lycky said from the test; good egngine, but underbody far from R5. Car cool to drive.
    That test was on asfalt, not sure what he said after gravel experience.

    Guys, can you create a new thread for cars like this one? They are not R4 and therefore are off topic here. In fact they are off topic even in ERC section because they are not homologated internationally.

    Yep, N5 isn’t R4, still it’s pretty close to it and both are a step down to R5 (using your analogy, they’re R5- not R5+). N5 is Spanish version of Argentina Maxi Rally and R4 uses their concept: silhouette cars with common mechanical kit. N5 also gets a light tuned PSA EP engine, although using a 34mm restrictor (33 for R4). N5 transmission is based on the Impreza, while R4 has gearbox and diffs similar to R5.

    On this year Spanish tarmac events, N5 top drivers were most of the time behind R5 crews, but on gravel series Suarez (RMC 208 N5) was able to match the competition and win the series (his talent surely helped). Suzuki, through ARVidal, has been using the N5 Swift for two seasons and Renault, with RMC, entered the Clio N5 this year but is planning to replace it by a R4 Clio next year, as it’s believed R4 cars will be slightly more competitive (and expensive) than current N5.

    Good news from my country:

    Indonesian Motor Association recently allowed AP4 rally cars to compete in M.1 class at Indonesian Rally & Sprint Rally Championship.

    For sure the interest towards R4 are getting less & less likely

    Yes, Toyota Yaris R4 with Oreca’s R4 kit is being built by Evolve Motorsport in Warsaw. They say the price of the Yaris R4 is 20% lower than any R5 car and the running costs are up to 40% lower. The car is going to make its debut in the first half of 2018. More about it here:

    Very cool. Evolve Motorsport seems to be doing some top notch work. The chassis work is great and the proto style cars they have are also very good. The chassis layout is a step above the Dytko proto cars.
