Andretti remains in ARX with Volkswagen

Andretti Autosport will defend its title this year in Americas Rallycross. The champion team of the first edition with Scott Speed ​​will once again enter two Volkswagen Beetles in the premier Supercars category, taking advantage of the support of the German manufacturer which abandoned World RX where it was entered with PSRX Team Sweden, Petter's team Solberg.

“It’s great to see the Beetles in ARX again this year, comments Jost Capito, director of Volkswagen R, the sports branch of the brand. It will be a great end for this historic model whose production is coming to an end. We are keen to offer affordable performance and that is why Volkswagen R is delighted to support Andretti this season. »

The Beetle Rallycross was built by Volkswagen Motorsport in Europe and subsequently developed by Andretti in the USA. They will still be powered by the 2.0l turbo 560hp. Andretti Autosport will soon unveil its crew to defend its ARX title, with the start of the season scheduled for the weekend of July 14 at Gateway Motorsports Park (Illinois).
