Toyota Gazoo Racing W2RC (TGR W2RC) will kick off their FIA World Rally-Raid Championship (W2RC) title defence with updated crews and all-new, stronger DKR GR Hilux at the 2026 Dakar Rally.
TGR W2RC have won four consecutive manufacturers’ World Championships, and three driver’s World Championship titles, most recently this year with Lucas Moraes. This success emphasises the strength of their DKR GR Hilux vehicles – based on the iconic Toyota Hilux pick-up – and the performance of their drivers, navigators and team members.
The 2026 season begins with the Dakar Rally, held on 3-17 January in Saudi Arabia, when TGR W2RC will challenge for their fourth victory, following wins in 2019, 2022 and 2023. To take on a fiercely competitive field against multiple manufacturers, TGR W2RC have refreshed their line-up and introduced an all-new DKR GR Hilux.
