CE Dealer Team takes covers off ‘epic’ 2023 challenger

Construction Equipment Dealer Team has today officially unveiled the striking new colour scheme that will adorn its two cars in the ground-breaking FIA World Rallycross Championship in 2023.

After finishing third in the teams’ table at the end of its maiden campaign in international rallycross’ top flight last year – with Niclas Grönholm triumphing twice along the way – CE Dealer Team has set its sights even higher for its second season in World RX, with the experienced Finn and promising young team-mate Klara Andersson remaining on-board.

The Swedish squad recently confirmed a multi-year extension to its successful and ground-breaking World RX programme – driving the shift to improved sustainability and diversity in society and highlighting the excitement that a move to an electric future offers.

The yellow, black and orange livery on the team’s pair of 500kW (680bhp) PWR RX1e beasts is a fresh look, bringing it in-line with a new modern design language for Volvo CE products – as the team features strong backing from partners Ascendum, Babcock, CTEK, Engcon, Parker Hannifin, SMT, SSAB and Swecon.

“The car looks epic, it looks fast, it looks exciting and it’s a perfect fit for our charge for the top in the 2023 World RX season,” enthused Andersson. “The team has done an amazing job over the winter in preparation for the season, with everyone showing really strong commitment. To finally be able to reveal the livery is a great moment for all involved. We’re ready to go!”

The new World RX campaign gets underway at Montalegre in Portugal this weekend (3-4 June).
