Toyota Gazoo Racing Sa Fields Proudly South African Team For 2025 Dakar Rally

Toyota Gazoo Racing South Africa has put the final touches to its GR DKR Hilux Evo bakkie ahead of the 2025 Dakar Rally with a gruelling testing session in Namibia's dunes.

The 2025 Dakar Rally, which kicks off on 3 January, will see crews race across nearly 8 000km of Saudi Arabia's toughest terrain. It promises to push teams and their machines to the absolute limit.

The 2025 Dakar Rally comprises 12 challenging stages, including more than 5 000km of timed special stages. The route will take competitors from Bisha to Shubaytah, combining high-speed straights, technical dunes, and treacherous navigation.

For the 2025 edition of the world's toughest motorsport event, Toyota Gazoo Racing SA will field a four-car team driven by four South African drivers.
