    I know, that's why I said 'image', but it gives a clue to the cars probable look which is evolutionary. Same with the chassis.

    Maybe this is why M-Sport aren't worried about having the 2017 Fiesta yet, as it will be very similar to the previous one...

    That’s one of the test mules that have been rolling alongside the pre series camouflaged model.

    All (except Hyundai) have same problem: Production not started yet.
    C3 is released but new Fiesta, new Polo and new Yaris will be probably at Paris Autoexpo end of september / beginning october.

    Anyone knows how strict the rules about homologation are, especially with evolution/changes of parts after the first homologation? If they are as strict as now, I could imagine some manufacturer would homologate the current model as a new WRC and drive it for half a year before homologating the new one...

    So the test cars of Polo and Yaris are testing the aero on the current cars even though the new road car will have a different bodyshell..

    And Hyundai havent even started 2017 yet ?

    At least Citroen have the new C3 to work on.
