FORD FIESTA NRC EVO2

Dear Customer,
It is with great pleasure that we are contacting you to inform you about the possibility of placing an order for the new 2022 Ford Fiesta NRC EVO2 Prototype.

Latvia based professional rally team NEIKSANS RALLYSPORT with more than 20 years of experience in motorsports has worked closely with the engineers and racing parts manufacturers to design and build Ford Fiesta NRC (Neiksans Rally Cars) rally prototype based on the Ford Fiesta R5. The Fiesta NRC is alternative to R5 cars for national championships at the lower costs similar to N4 and R4.

The initial design and development started in October 2017, with the first test session taking place in September 2018.

The Fiesta NRC has passed through a rigorous development program, having already completed over 4000km of testing in extreme hot and cold climates as well as Tarmac development is planned from now until the start of October 2022.

Smooth gravel, rough gravel, snow and ice, seasoned test drivers, ERC rally winners, and even FIA World Rallycross and FIA Cross-Country winners has tested and developed the Fiesta NRC and no stone has been left unturned in search of optimum speed, reliability and performance.

Based on the latest Ford Fiesta road car, the NRC EVO2 builds on the success of the current NRC model but with a partial overhaul of components, technology and design throughout which will naturally result in an increase in performance. Particular attention has been paid to the overall weight of the car, balance of the car and the new hydraulic steering layout, as well as improved engine design. Combined with a new aero design, taking in design elements from the championship winning 2017 & 2018 Fiesta WRC, the car will look as spectacular as its performance figures.
