After launching the single make DS3 Cup race series a couple of season ago, the category, based on the sporty Citroen DS3 1.6VTi (MY2010-15) will run as a Championship for the 2026 season and beyond.
The DS3 Cup project has been developed in conjunction with long-term Club Partners SW Motorsports, and the race cars have been designed to be affordable, easy to build, reliable, and offering equal performance.
By way of a controlled engine map, air intake and exhaust system, the 1600cc 16v engines output a lively 135bhp, making them a great choice for new racers or those looking to progress from CityCar Cup racing. Performance, handling and safety is managed by all cars having to use a tightly controlled mandatory build kit, this containing everything needed to turn a DS3 donor car into a race ready DS3 Cup machine. Details of the mandatory parts kit can be found in the table below.
In 2026, DS3 Cup cars will race as a Championship Class within the BRSCC Production Cup Series, with the aim to develop a stand-alone DS3 Cup championship grid in 2027.
