rally car
Off-road speed machine
A rally car is a vehicle modified or purpose-built for rally racing—a motorsport where cars compete on public or private roads over varied terrain including gravel, dirt, snow, and asphalt.
Unlike circuit racing, rally cars navigate point-to-point stages with a driver and co-driver who reads pace notes.
Production-based rally cars feature reinforced suspensions, roll cages, and upgraded drivetrains: The rally car kicked up clouds of dust on the mountain stage.
