Thierry Neuville and co-driver Martijn Wydaeghe steered the No. 1 Hyundai i20 N Rally1 to 4th overall, continuing their campaign to defend the 2024 WRC Drivers' title. IXO Models has captured that specific moment in a \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e scale model that wears its competition scars honestly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"the-real-car\"\u003eA Rally1 Hybrid Built to the 2022 Regulations\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hyundai i20 N Rally1 was introduced for the 2022 WRC season under FIA Rally1 regulations, which mandate a 100 kW hybrid system working alongside a 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine for a combined output of approximately 380 hp. The car runs on 18-inch Pirelli tyres, and its homologated length stands at approximately 4,195 mm. It is the second-generation i20 N Rally1 and represents Hyundai Motorsport's front-line weapon in the current Hybrid era of the World Rally Championship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"the-story\"\u003eCar No. 1 and the Weight of a Championship Number\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn WRC, carrying No. 1 means you are the reigning Drivers' Champion. Neuville claimed that honour at the end of the 2024 season, giving Hyundai Shell Mobis WRT their first WRC Drivers' title. For 2025, the Belgian drives with that number as both a badge and a target. The Hyundai Shell Mobis WRT livery — blue, white and red with Shell and Hyundai Mobis branding — is one of the most recognisable colour schemes on the current WRC grid. The dirty version goes a step further, replicating the accumulated road grime and dust the car carries after competitive stages, a detail that transforms the model from showroom replica into a document of a real rally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"the-scale-model\"\u003eIXO Models in Die-Cast at \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e scale model is manufactured by IXO Models in die-cast metal. IXO has built a strong catalogue of rally cars at this scale, and their weathered end-of-rally editions are treated as distinct releases from the clean-livery counterparts — a practice increasingly valued by collectors who want a specific competitive snapshot rather than a generic press-car presentation. The livery, numberboard and Hyundai Shell Mobis WRT sponsor graphics are reproduced to match the Portugal 2025 specification.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IXO MODELS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60026443235712,"sku":"18RMC251B.22","price":73.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/8828\/7104\/files\/vroomi-18rmc251b22-front34-v2.jpg?v=1793720141","url":"https:\/\/vroomimodels.com\/de\/products\/hyundai-i20-n-rally1-team-shell-mobis-18rmc251b22","provider":"Vroomi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
