Other photos here.. can't see regular car's plates very well, but seems to start with EU(blue) badge...so Finland very likely it is

It's Hyundai's official test area, yes. I was there this summer.

Gravel testing now? That's a bit odd, it's not like we have Wales in a couple of weeks time.

development testing, to homologate new parts. Last chance to do so before winter. Also possibly for a new driver to try the car...

The new driver part I understand, just the gravel testing seemed odd so thanks for clearing that

Also: they don't have test days for Rally Japan, only for European events. And that area in Finland is the only place where they can do development testing.

You can scale the model when making a Rally1 car.

OK I didn't know that.
But... if you want a Rally1 car, you have to produce at least 25000 road cars to homologate, right?
Does Subaru have money to develop a new road car?
In my opinion, if there are some chances for Subaru to join WRC, for me it makes more sense to be based on BRZ.

Could it be a test driver?

Does Hyundai even have a test driver like Wilson in M-Sport or Hänninen in Toyota?
