Bosch backs ARC for 2025 season

The EROAD Australian Rally Championship (ARC) has secured another major brand ahead of the season, with Bosch Motorsport Australia signing on as the Official Parts Partner for 2025.

A global leader in automotive innovation and technology, Bosch Motorsport develops high-performance components designed to handle even the toughest rally conditions.

In addition to being the Official Parts Partner, Bosch Motorsport Australia will also be backing the newly introduced Ballot System, where the top three seeded crews will pick their starting position from a ballot during every event’s Rally Show on the Friday night.

Bosch Motorsport Australia’s General Manager, Blake Jones said “Bosch Motorsport Australia is extremely proud to continue its partnership as Official Parts Partner of the 2025 Australian Rally Championship. Our state-of-the-art electronics, including ECUs, data loggers and fuel pumps drive the performance of rally teams in Australia and across the globe, ensuring every stage is fuelled by Bosch Motorsport’s 120 year legacy of quality”.

It won’t be the first time the wider Bosch organisation has been involved with the ARC, having joined as naming rights partner of the championship in 2011 and 2012, before returning in 2023 for a two-year stint in the same role.

ARC Director Adrian Coppin was pleased to have Bosch Motorsport Australia return for the season.

“The ARC continues to strengthen its network of industry-leading partners, so having Bosch again for the 2025 season reinforces our position as one of premier rally championships in the region,” Coppin said.

“Bosch Motorsport technology continues to enable competitors’ performance across the ARC field this year and it’s great they got behind the new Ballot system that we introduced for this season – they obviously like the direction that we’re heading in and want to remain as part of it.

“We look forward to having Bosch Motorsport Australia for 2025 and I would like to thank Blake Jones and his team for their support during their time as a naming rights partner and now going forward.”

The 2025 season kicks off this weekend with the Toyota Gazoo Racing Rally of Canberra on 21-23 March.
