Car No. 11, driven by Thierry Neuville and co-driver Martijn Wydaeghe, represents the spearhead of the Hyundai Shell Mobis World Rally Team's assault on the 2026 season. This \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e die-cast captures the car as it lined up for Round 1 at Rally Monte Carlo 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"i20-n-rally1-tech\"\u003eBuilt for the Hybrid Era\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hyundai i20 N Rally1 was engineered to FIA Rally1 regulations that came into force in 2022, pairing a 1.6-litre turbocharged inline-four petrol engine with a 100 kW hybrid unit for a combined output of approximately 380 bhp. Beneath the bodywork lies a tubular spaceframe chassis — a significant departure from the road-going i20 N platform it references visually. The hybrid system is mandatory across the Rally1 class, making energy management as critical as outright power delivery on the Monte's mixed-surface stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"neuville-monte-carlo-2026\"\u003eChampion's Number at the Season Opener\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThierry Neuville claimed the 2023 FIA WRC Drivers' Championship with Hyundai Motorsport — his first title after years of close finishes — and carried car No. 11 into the 2026 campaign as the team's lead driver. Martijn Wydaeghe, his co-driver since 2021, forms one of the most experienced pairings in the current WRC field. Rally Monte Carlo, whose history stretches back to 1911, is the traditional season curtain-raiser and one of the most prestigious fixtures on the calendar. The Shell Mobis partnership brings a striking light blue and red colour scheme to the i20 N's bodywork and aero surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"1-18-scale-model-i20-rally1\"\u003eThe 1:18 Scale Model\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e scale model is produced in die-cast metal, a construction method that delivers the structural rigidity and surface definition required to faithfully replicate the i20 N Rally1's complex aero elements, wheel arch extensions, and full sponsor graphic package. The Shell Mobis livery — with its light blue base and red accents — is reproduced across the bodywork, making the colour layout immediately recognisable to anyone familiar with the Hyundai Shell Mobis WRT's competition cars. At this scale, the Rally1-generation hood vents, front splitter geometry and roof-mounted air intake all read clearly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IXO MODELS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60239546122624,"sku":"18RMC270B.22","price":73.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/8828\/7104\/files\/vroomi-18rmc270b22-front34-v2.jpg?v=1793204989","url":"https:\/\/vroomimodels.com\/products\/hyundai-i20-n-wrc-rally1-team-shell-mo-18rmc270b22","provider":"Vroomi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
