4WD Cars with national/regional homologation

[PLuto]

It is new evolution of Suzuki Swift Maxi from last year. National danish homologation, 2 l atmospheric engine, FWD, Sadev transmission, 6 gears.

Sound like great car, an engine is most interesting part, but I guess most secret

R4 seems to be a stillborn, so I do not understand why the rest in here can not see the need for a more affordable 4wd for rally?

You’re not the only one. Many have recognized the need for a 4WD entry class in Europe, following Maxi Rally and AP4 examples (supported by the FIA in their regions).

R4 is failing because its nuts to implement it through a single supplier. Having a mandatory kit is a valid option, but the FIA should allow certified national tuners to locally make the parts and build the cars, using a common regulation (just like AP4).

As it was discussed in this topic previously, here is brief interview about Suzuki Motorsport Denmark and its Swifts Maxi 2000. This time I also published english version, so I hope it will be better to understand than translated Czech article https://www.ewrc.cz/clanek/32874-pow...de-in-denmark/

But I am not sure if it is correct thread as both Suzukis are only 2WD

Please use this if you want to write about non FIA cars.

There are totally 11 Proto/Dytko/R-Lite cars in Finland now. 3 more known are coming or under built.

Dytko has made Yaris Proto, some people said it looked very fine, much better looking than Fiesta or Polo.

Those R-Lite cars are allowed to compete in Finland and have their own class which have NO championship value. Also those cars will start after all Championship, F-group and standard 1600 cars, around 70-80th car in stages.

Best place to use those in Finland is F-Cup 4wd class (modern FIA cars not allowed there)
