Why does the WRC rarely see Japanese cars racing?

The main thing is that Japan chose to quit in the 90s, and then it has never participated, and Japanese cars are not suitable for rallying.

Because of the financial turmoil caused by the economic downturn in Japan in the 90s, WRC was withdrawn one after another, represented by Nissan, Mitsubishi, Suzuki, and Subaru. Honda and Toyota are also withdrawing from F1 one after another

The main reason is that the Japanese car model is not suitable or anything, and I used to withdraw from the competition for financial reasons, and I have not participated in it since.

I remember that Toyota participated in this year's competition, and it was a major shareholder, and it seems that it won a second place in the end.

WRC has Subaru participating, and Toyota is the majority shareholder of Subaru, and it depends on the different events that some of them participate. There is no in the WRC, but there is one in the Dakar. WRC had previously participated in the 2007 Dakar Rally, where the Toyota Land Cruiser took second place.

The '80s were the time when Japanese cars dominated racing, with Rally being Fuji followed by Evo and Honda in F1, and then slowly being phased out by European cars.

What I know is that Honda doesn't, and neither does Nissan, but both of these manufacturers have always been in the F1, and it seems that the Japanese manufacturers are coming back recently after the Japanese manufacturers collectively withdrew from the WRC in the 90s, and Toyota is going to compete with the new Yaris recently.

In the past, it seemed that it was due to economic reasons, but after the economy gradually developed, Japan seems to continue to participate in the competition, and this year it will be the second.

Chassis Master! Strong handling, the king of corners, the first place in the elk test, the ranking has not been broken so far, leading technology, high safety performance, even BMW has to buy his chassis technology, too few people know, people who really know and understand the car buy. (Just to provide real content and share with everyone, don't disturb the black sprayer).

I knew that racing cars need to inject a lot of money and energy, Mitsubishi's sales in recent years have not been very good, and in the financial crisis, the problem of funding is one aspect. In addition, Mitsubishi did not have strong driver support in the WRC, and the season was not good. A number of reasons led to Mitsubishi's withdrawal from WRC and DAKAR.

This is undoubtedly a disappointment for many Mitsubishi and WRC fans!!

Because the Japanese car park is not good after the glory of the 90s.

As the 2006 WRC was about to begin, there was shocking but expected news from Japan! Mitsubishi, which has a wealth of experience in WRC racing, officially announced to the world on December 14 that it would withdraw from the World Rally Championship due to recent problems (including of course, the two major shareholders have successively taken their shares**) so that it can focus its resources on revival plans. While Mitsubishi announced its withdrawal from the WRC, it also expressed hope that it would be able to return to the WRC in 2008 after successfully completing its revitalization plan from 2005 to 2007.

However, Mitsubishi fans are comforted by the fact that the DAKAR Rally Mitsubishi will not withdraw and will still actively participate in the event.

Maybe you're too young! There used to be a lot of them, Mitsubishi and Subaru Lunzhuang.

In the past, Mitsubishi and Subaru were regular participants in this event.

Because Japanese cars are so powerful.

What time? All I know is that now in 2020, Toyota is basically dominant.

Isn't the Toyota Yaris Japanese.

Isn't there a Toyota fleet?

Subaru STI and Mitsubishi EVO are not Japanese cars?

In the past, there was Mitsubishi Subaru, and now there is Toyota, what is it called?
