There was one vital goal for our team in 2020: to one again bring home the WRC title. Despite a disrupted season, we successfully completed our mission. With three wins, 11 podiums and 54 stage wins, our company triumphed in the manufacturers’ championship for the second consecutive year.
Our customers were also affected as a result of the global pandemic, with many series forced to cancel or condense their seasons.
Nevertheless, the i20 R5, i30 N TCR and Veloster N TCR continued to demonstrate their competitiveness around the world.

• Second consecutive WRC manufacturers’ title
• Three victories in Monte-Carlo, Estonia and Sardinia
• TCR customers claimed 12 titles, 67 wins, 148 podiums and 68 pole positions in 2020
• i20 R5 customers secured 3 titles, 37 wins, 105 podiums and 292 stage wins

A momentous year for our company was capped with an inaugural WRC manufacturers’ title, following four victories and a season full of highlights.
There was also plenty of success for our customers around the world. Norbert Michelisz powered the i30 N TCR to its second consecutive FIA WTCR championship, while the i20 R5, i30 N TCR and Veloster N TCR racked up more wins and titles in 2019.

Gabriele Tarquini took our i30 N TCR to the top of the inaugural WTCR standings in 2018, while our customers also triumphed in the team’s championship.

In WRC, three more victories ensured we were in close contention for glory right up to the season finale.

• Inaugural FIA WTCR championship for i30 N TCR customers
• Drivers’ and manufacturers’ titles in WRC went down to the wire in Australia

2017 was a season of mixed feelings for our team as we finished vice-champions in WRC for the second consecutive season.

Meanwhile, our Customer Racing activities intensified with competitive debut of the i30 N TCR racer.

• New era for WRC; four victories with the i20 Coupe WRC
• Closely fought second in both championships
• i30 N TCR took victory on its competitive debut in China

We enjoyed a return to winning ways in WRC in 2016, while also expanding our rally efforts into the R5 category.

Our New Generation i20 WRC proved to be a genuine contender with our crews fighting for victories and podiums regularly throughout the season.

• WRC victories in Argentina and Sardinia.
• 12 podiums, 47 stage wins and second in the championship
• i20 R5 makes its debut at Tour de Corse

Building on our debut season, we sought consistency and refinement in our second WRC season. We added to our podium and stage win tally throughout the year.

We also established a brand new Customer Racing department, announcing a new i20 R5 project at our December team launch.

• Development of New Generation i20 WRC in parallel to WRC
• Podiums in Sweden, Sardinia and Spain

Our debut season in WRC was one filled with milestones and memories. From a tough opening round at Monte-Carlo, our first successes were just around the corner.

A podium in Mexico and an incredible 1-2 on home soil in Germany were the highlights.

• Debut at Rallye Monte-Carlo
• First podium in Mexico with Thierry and Nicolas
• First win with 1-2 at Rallye Deutschland

From a blank sheet of paper, our young team embarked on an ambitious programme during 2013.
 
As well as establishing our brand new facility and building a team of dedicated professionals we also saw the development of our new i20 WRC.

• Establishing a brand new company
• Building a team of dedicated professionals
