CE Dealer Team by Volvo Construction Equipment is back on track for the World RX 2025 season – and in full preparation mode. With changes to the regulations, this year promises to be one of the most competitive yet.
Following the FIA’s decision to invest directly in the World RX – taking on both operator and promoter roles – the championship is entering a new era of performance and innovation. Testing restrictions have been lifted, differential adjustments permitted, softer compound tyres, and a new weight limit introduced with an Equivalency of Technology (EOT) test planned to confirm these weights. Together, these changes give teams greater freedom to push the limits of performance. In other words: it’s game on.“
These changes reflect a shift we’ve been pushing for - and now we have the opportunity to really show what we’re capable of,” says Jussi Pinomäki, Team Principal, CE Dealer Team. “Our mission remains the same: to compete at the top level while staying true to the values that define us – and this year, that means winning the Teams’ Championship.”
That mission is rooted in purpose: to accelerate sustainability in motorsport, challenge norms, and build a platform for greater diversity and inclusion in the paddock and beyond. CE Dealer Team is the only team on the grid created with this kind of long-term ambition and enters 2025 more determined than ever to drive change through performance.

Klara Andersson and Niclas Grönholm are confirmed as official drivers for the season.
“I’m fired up for this season,” says Klara Andersson. “We’ve got the team, the tools, and the testing time - now we get to show what we can really do.”
“I’m racing to win,” adds Niclas Grönholm, keeping it characteristically brief and direct.
FIA Road Sport Director, Emilia Abel, added “I’m delighted to see CE Dealer Team confirm such a strong driver line-up. It’s another positive step for both the championship and the future of rallycross.”
The team’s momentum is powered by the continued support of engcon and Parker Hannifin, who return as main partners. Texstar continues as clothing partner, alongside support from the team’s Gold sponsors, dealers Swecon and Ascendum.
As the 2025 season begins, CE Dealer Team by Volvo Construction Equipment stands ready to deliver both performance and progress – and to compete at the highest level.
