INDYCAR To Debut Lighter Car In 2028 With More Power
ELKHART LAKE, Wis. — The new INDYCAR vehicle to debut in 2028 will be lighter with a more powerful engine. Those features were expected, as INDYCAR released some details about the new car. Teams, however, had hoped that it could be rolled out in 2027. The current car has been used since 2012, with various additions such as the aeroscreen and the hybrid. The new car will be 85 to 100 pounds lighter than the current car, which ranges from 1,635 to 1,785 pounds — depending on whether it's at a speedway or road course. The new engine will be a 2.4-liter, V-6 twin-turbocharged engine, which should have more power than the 2.2-liter, V-6 twin-turbocharged engine currently used. Hybrid technology will continue. "The new car will obviously be safer," Penske Corp. Chairman Roger Penske said a few weeks ago at Detroit. "It should be lighter. It should be able to compete in road racing without having this bubble in between the cars. And it should be faster." INDYCAR will continue to use many primary suppliers: Dallara to build the chassis, Xtrac for transmissions and PFC for brakes. Engine suppliers? Those are still up in the air, as Chevrolet and Honda are signed only through 2026. "Recent significant updates to the car — from the aeroscreen to the hybrid power unit — have helped advance the need for a completely new car," INDYCAR President Doug Boles said in a statement. "We are pleased by what our engineers and Dallara have collaboratively designed and believe it will appeal to the fans and paddock, while also upholding our standards of safety and enhancing INDYCAR's on-track competition well into the future." INDYCAR says that thorough on-track testing will begin in early 2026. Bob Pockrass covers NASCAR and INDYCAR for FOX Sports.

IndyCar confirms lighter, more powerful Dallara chassis plans for 2028 season
IndyCar gave an official status update on its next-generation chassis prior to qualifying in Wisconsin, sharing details on the car that's planned to be lighter — with a more powerful engine — after sharing the updates in a private meeting with team owners on Saturday. 'The time has come for a new NTT IndyCar Series chassis," IndyCar President J. Douglas Boles said in a press release. 'The DW12 served the series so well, as it provided a combination of phenomenal, wheel-to-wheel racing and critical enhancements to safety. But recent significant updates to the car — from the aeroscreen to the hybrid power unit — have helped advance the need for a completely new car.' Advertisement The next IndyCar chassis is currently slated for a 2028 launch, with on-track testing set to begin in early 2026. Plans include between 85 to 100 pounds of weight reduction (led by a 25-pound decrease from the gearbox) and a step up in displacement to a 2.4-liter twin-turbocharged V-6 internal combustion engine — along with continued evolution of the hybrid unit first introduced in 2024. In comparison, the current IndyCar series regulations require a 2.2-liter, V-6 twin-turbocharged engine. Confirmed suppliers are no surprise. Dallara will produce the chassis, continuing a relationship that dates back to 1997 and has been exclusive since 2008. Xtrac will produce transmissions - an exclusive role it's had since 2000. PFC will supply brakes. No engine suppliers were announced in Saturday's release. Chevrolet and Honda are the current OEMs, but have deals that end after 2026. The release continues: 'We are pleased by what our engineers and Dallara have collaboratively designed and believe it will appeal to the fans and paddock while also upholding our standards of safety and enhancing IndyCar's on-track competition well into the future.' Advertisement IndyCar noted three areas targeted with the new car: competition, powertrain development and safety. Noted in the release were aims for a hybrid unit with longer deployment and more horsepower gain, along with a more ergonomic driver cockpit to improve seating position, an integrated aeroscreen and a new roll hoop. The series plans to unveil renderings and more information at a later date. The current car has been in use since 2012, with adaptations made over time to accommodate modern implementations such as the aeroscreen and hybrid unit. To read more articles visit our website.

Stenhouse has vowed retaliation on rival Carson Hocevar. Will NASCAR payback be delivered at Pocono?
LONG POND, Pa. — Carson Hocevar walked around Pocono Raceway without a scratch on his face. His polo shirt looked more tailored than tattered and the Spire Motorsports driver was ready to race rather than rumble. Ricky Stenhouse Jr. hadn't socked Hocevar with a right hook quite yet — hot on the heels of Stenhouse's threat to beat up his racing rival after last weekend's race in Mexico City — leaving the next shot at any potential retaliation inside or outside the cars set for Sunday's NASCAR race.
