Not interested in that, car only exists as a electric vehicle, not with an ICE engine.

No no.

Rally5-Kit is like the 208 and Corsa that race in Spain Volant RACC cup.

NEW e-Rally5 is other thing.

because they want to sell the car!

Imo it's easier to sell a car with an international homologation than one with a national homologation.

If they're aimed at national competition, going through FIA paperwork could add unnecessary €€€s to the cost/price.

not necessarily. look at france fr6 (that basically is the reference for this...). they're aiming to have the same national homologation in italy too.
they sold 100 lancia rally4 for the trophy. if they add a similar "rally6" trophy they could probably sell similar numbers.

Rally-5 kit is homologated through an ASN, not directly with FIA, so costs are not the same.

FR6 are allowed in Portugal as RC6N national. They also race in last Portuguese championship rally.
Hungary will use them too on Peugeot Rally Academy.
