The Safari Rally Kenya is one of the most demanding events on the WRC calendar: red dirt tracks, loose stones, jumps and heat that pushes every component of the car to its limits. In 2022, the Ford Puma Rally1 Hybrid was one of the machines that tackled that terrain, and Solido has captured that specific version in 1/18 scale with a level of fidelity that goes well beyond colour and silhouette.
A Rally1 with real stage history behind it
Reference S1809506 reproduces the Puma Rally1 Hybrid with which J. Serderidis and F. Miclotte competed under number 9 at the Safari Rally Kenya 2022. The blue Ford WRC team livery, the race number and the competition details are all present in a model that carries the official Ford WRC licence. Approximately 25 cm in length at 1/18 scale, made in diecast, with that weight and solidity that sets metal models apart from any plastic alternative.
Features that bring the model to life
The front doors open and the steering is functional: the wheels turn from the steering wheel, a detail that at this scale makes a real difference when you hold the car in your hands. The finish includes high-quality paintwork and carefully rendered interior details, and the box includes a luxury display base so you can show it off straight away without looking for a separate stand.
On the shelf, among the greats of modern WRC
The Puma Rally1 Hybrid represents the hybrid era of the WRC, and in a collection of recent competition cars it holds its own: it is instantly recognisable, has a modern and aggressive silhouette, and the Safari Rally Kenya livery gives it an identity that sets it apart from other versions of the same car. For anyone who follows the WRC or is building a contemporary rally display, this is one of those pieces that rewards the more you know about what you are looking at.
