Hello DiRT fans!

The offroad action continues this week with Season 2, and here’s a quick look at what’s coming on June 4. Release times will vary depending on your region and platform.

New cars:

Group B Rallycross is here!

Week 1 sees the release of the first 2 cars in this Class, the Peugeot 205 T16 Rallycross and the Ford RS200 Evolution. Group B rally cars are some of the most fearsome and spectacular in DiRT Rally 2.0 and the thrills are set to continue on the Rallycross circuits with these 2 machines.

If you’re a Deluxe Edition or Season Pass owner both cars will be automatically added to your My Team garage, and no matter how you own the DLC both cars are available in Free Play, Time Trial and Multiplayer. Both cars will have 5 selectable liveries in-game, the defaults you see here plus 4 custom designs.

As always, if you’re not a DiRT Rally 2.0 Season owner the vehicles are available for purchase individually. You may need to download items from the store for them to appear in-game.

Now, let’s look at these 2 mighty machines!

Peugeot 205 T16 Rallycross

The Peugeot 205 T16 was purpose built for Group B rally and cemented itself as one of the most successful cars in its group. The car was, like many of its rivals, modified for use in rallycross, becoming a successful front-runner in Europe. Modifications included a new aero kit, an extreme rear wing, and increased engine power output.

• Max Power: 480 bhp

• Max Weight: 960 kg

• Engine: 1775 cc, 4 cylinders

• Aspiration: Turbo

• Transmission: 5 Speed – Manual

• Mid-Engined, 4WD

Ford RS200 Evolution

The Ford RS200 never had the opportunity to shine in Group B rally. This changed however, when the car was entered into its first European Rallycross Championship event. The car demonstrated incredible performance characteristics, winning multiple events between 1986-1992, and winning the championship in 1991. Typically producing around 580 hp, the RS200 could accelerate from 0-60 in a little over 2 seconds.

• Max Power: 450 bhp

• Max Weight: 1180 kg

• Engine: 1803 cc, 4 cylinders

• Aspiration: Turbo

• Transmission: 5 Speed – Manual

• Mid-Engined, 4WD

• SUBARU WRX STI Rallycross

Finally, Season owners will receive their Credits drop on June 4: a 200,000 CR boost to help with buying, upgrading and repairing their cars.
