About the Ford Puma Rally1 WRC #7 P-L. Loubet / N. Gilsoul Rally Sweden 2023 IXO 1:18
TL;DR: IXO's 1:18 diecast Ford Puma Rally1 WRC recreates the #7 P-L. Loubet / N. Gilsoul entry from the 2023 Rally Sweden. The zinc alloy body is sealed with no opening panels, holding the Rally1 hybrid car's aero package as one continuous casting. A companion piece to the team's winning #8 Tanak car from the same event.
Rally Sweden's snow-packed stages tested Ford's Puma Rally1 hybrid platform in one of its toughest environments, and this #7 Loubet/Gilsoul entry documents one half of the team's two-car effort at the event.
Diecast Detail on the Puma's Hybrid-Era Aero
Rally1 cars carry substantial aerodynamic addenda, front splitters, roof scoops, and rear wings, all of which need sharp, well-defined edges to translate correctly at 1:18. Zinc alloy diecast gives this Puma genuine weight and holds those cast aero elements as consistent, well-defined detail. Because the body is sealed with no opening parts, the aggressive bodywork sits fixed on one continuous shell, keeping the current-era livery's dense sponsor graphics aligned across doors and roof without a hinge line breaking the design.
A Two-Car Team Effort in the Snow
Pierre-Louis Loubet and Nicolas Gilsoul's #7 entry ran alongside teammate Ott Tanak's #8 car at the 2023 Rally Sweden, a snow-and-ice event that puts a premium on the Rally1 hybrid system's power delivery and the car's stability on studded tires. Fielding multiple cars gave Ford's team broader coverage and a stronger shot at a strong overall result.
Completing a Team Grouping
Displayed alongside the #8 Tanak/Jarveoja winning entry from the same rally, this Puma completes a two-car set documenting the full team effort at a single, snow-bound World Rally Championship round.
