Rally 3 class

[Humber]

Toyota still not decided on class for first customer car.
Wobbling btw Rally2 and 3.

Might be smarter to go for rally3, get experience and then make a rallyE2 car in a few years.

Fierce competition in rally2, and possibility to do the same mistake as Hyundai, to put too little development into the rally2, and flop.
Less possibility for that in rally3.

Agree Toyota should do the 100K Euro Rally 3 first. There is such a push on at the moment with the auto-makers and regulations that Rally2 could be like the TCR circuit racers that could quickly lose status to the emerging E-TCR.

I would expect a Rally E2 category is not too far away, maybe with electric drive motors and battery with an on board charging petrol motor.
