Kajetan Kajetanowicz, set to contest another World Rally Championship campaign, has revealed the design of his new rally car. Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 of the ORLEN Rally Team driver puts on an elegant and dynamic design.
Kajetan Kajetanowicz starts his eighth season in the World Rally Championship. The ORLEN Rally Team driver continues his partnership with Maciej Szczepaniak. However, there are some changes ahead of the 2025 season. As revealed earlier, the most important one is the car: the most successful Polish rally driver switches to a Toyota GR Yaris Rally2, prepared by Polish tuner Rallylab Technology. Their campaign takes off in March, during Safari Rally Kenya.
The car livery has been kept secret for some time, after Kajetanowicz announced his plans and switch to the new car. Now, after building some excitement in social media, he finally revealed his Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 livery, long-awaited by rally fans. The rally champion, celebrating his birthday today, has prepared a gift for his supporters – he put dynamic colours on his car, which now gains even more aggressive characteristics.
The Polish driver usually surprises his fans and has never shied away from unique designs. His liveries over the past couple of seasons were minimalistic and free from bright colours. He often chose elegant and non-obvious concepts, such as silver combined with black (2022), beige (2023) or brown (2024). Especially his 2023 livery, with which he claimed his WRC2 Challenger title, attracted plenty of attention from media and fans all over the world.
However, this year Kajetanowicz decided to break the tradition of simple elegance, adding some dynamics and energy to the design. His Toyota turns grey and black, evoking a mysterious lunar aura. Fast and aggressive characteristics of the car are underlined not only by dynamic shapes and transitions but also by significant addition of red and blue. These two colours were present on various cars of triple European Rally Champion in past years. One of them is a symbol of energy, speed and passion while the other means trust, serenity and reliability. A combination of love for rallying, ambition and safety is a reflection of attitude and values shared by Kajetanowicz and all partners of the ORLEN Rally Team – headed by title partner ORLEN S.A., technical partner Delphi and ORLEN OIL. The car is also adorned with white and red touches – national colours of Poland underline the identity of the team.
– I hope that rally fans enjoy the livery of our new Toyota. The car has more colours and dynamic accents, so it looks even more aggressive. There are also significant white and red accents, stressing a strong, national identity of the whole ORLEN Rally Team. Our motivated Polish team will start the 2025 World Rally Championship season very soon.
– We begin our campaign with Safari Rally Kenya. Although it is an extremely demanding and absolutely unpredictable WRC round, I enjoy it a lot – difficult challenges motivate me. I wonder how our new car in 2025 livery will look like on the stages, especially in the middle of exotic African nature
– Kajetan Kajetanowicz said before the season.
This year’s Safari Rally Kenya takes place on 20-23 March. The competitors face 21 treacherous special stages, with combined length of almost 385 kilometres.
Starts of Kajetan Kajetanowicz are supported by title partner of the ORLEN Rally Team – ORLEN S.A., as well as by technical partner Delphi and ORLEN OIL.partner tytularny ORLEN Rally Team – ORLEN S.A., a także partner techniczny Delphi oraz ORLEN OIL.
