About the Hyundai i20 N Rally1 #1 T. Neuville / M. Wydaeghe Rally Portugal 2025 IXO 1:18

TL;DR: IXO's 1:18 diecast Hyundai i20 N Rally1 reproduces Thierry Neuville and Martijn Wydaeghe's #1 car at the 2025 Rally Portugal, cast as a sealed one-piece body with hybrid-era Rally1 aerodynamics and tampo-printed sponsor graphics rather than any opening panel.

Thierry Neuville has spent more than a decade at the sharp end of the World Rally Championship, and Hyundai's i20 N Rally1 remains his primary weapon in the sport's current hybrid era. His long-standing partnership with co-driver Martijn Wydaeghe adds continuity to a campaign built on consistency as much as outright speed.

IXO's Sealed-Body i20 N Rally1 in 1:18

A One-Piece Shell for Clean Livery Lines

This i20 N carries no opening doors, bonnet or boot, built instead as a single sealed casting that lets IXO hold continuous, uninterrupted shut lines across every panel. Hyundai Motorsport's livery, built from overlapping sponsor logos and accent stripes, benefits directly from that continuity, wrapping cleanly across the bonnet and door panels without breaking at a hinge line the way an opening equivalent would require. Door handles, mirrors and the roof aerial still carry fine moulded definition despite nothing physically moving. For a collector, that seamless graphic coverage is arguably a stronger selling point than a moving panel most buyers would rarely open after the first inspection anyway. The body's single casting also means panel gaps stay perfectly consistent from the day it leaves the box, with no hinge wear to loosen tolerances over years of handling.

Tampo Printing and Hybrid-Era Bodywork

Sponsor graphics are applied through tampo printing rather than waterslide decals, sitting flush to the surface and avoiding the lifted edges or silvering that can develop on cheaper transfer methods over time. The i20 N's Rally1-specification bodywork, including its enlarged front splitter and raised rear wing, is cast with sharp, defined edges that hold up under close inspection. The flared wheel arches frame correctly offset rally wheels without the gap or misalignment that affects lesser castings. Paint depth under direct light reveals the car's characteristic blue-and-cyan Hyundai livery with real clarity rather than a flattened, single-tone finish.

Neuville, Wydaeghe and Hyundai's Rally1 Programme

Hyundai's Hybrid-Era Challenger

The i20 N Rally1 represents Hyundai Motorsport's answer to the WRC's current regulations, which paired hybrid power units with tighter aerodynamic restrictions across the whole Rally1 field. Portugal's gravel stages, with their rough surfaces and demanding jumps, test suspension durability and driver confidence in equal measure, making a strong Portugal result a genuine indicator of all-round car performance rather than a single specialist strength. Hyundai's commitment to the gravel-heavy rounds of the calendar, Portugal chief among them, has long been central to the team's championship strategy. Hyundai's willingness to campaign a dedicated hybrid system from the regulation's introduction, rather than adapting an interim solution, underlines the manufacturer's broader motorsport ambitions.

A Long-Standing Partnership

Thierry Neuville's career includes multiple runner-up finishes in the drivers' championship, a record that reflects remarkable consistency across more than a decade at the top level of the sport. Martijn Wydaeghe, his co-driver through recent seasons, succeeded a long-serving predecessor in the right-hand seat and has settled quickly into the demands of calling pacenotes at rally speed. Their pairing on this Portugal-liveried car represents one of the WRC grid's more experienced driver-navigator combinations currently competing. Collecting event-specific Hyundai liveries alongside Toyota and other manufacturer entries builds a genuine cross-section of a single WRC season rather than a one-sided collection. Neuville's longevity with one manufacturer, rare in a sport known for driver movement, gives this livery added context for anyone following his career specifically.

Collection Context

This Hyundai entry pairs naturally with Toyota's GR Yaris Rally1 and other current manufacturer liveries from the same Rally Portugal round, letting a collector assemble a genuine snapshot of one WRC event rather than a scattered mix of seasons. At 1:18, the i20 N's compact rally stance and wide arches give it the same aggressive footprint as its Rally1 rivals, making shelf comparisons between manufacturers straightforward. IXO's accessible pricing at this scale keeps a round-by-round season collection realistic rather than an expensive undertaking. Choosing results from the same event across different manufacturers also highlights genuine differences in livery design philosophy between Hyundai, Toyota and the rest of the current Rally1 field. It is a small but telling comparison for anyone studying how the sport's constructors present themselves.
