The next edition of Rali Vinho da Madeira will be the stage for the first evolution on the island of several models. One of them is the Toyota Yaris Proto. The car that will be at the event is prepared based on a kit from the Polish company Dytko and is based on a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X mechanic. The specifications, except for the dimensions, are similar to those of the Japanese car in its NR4 version. The car has a turbocharged four-cylinder engine of around 2,000 cc and is transmitted to all four wheels via a Samsonas sequential gearbox. In its configuration and on tarmac, the suspensions are from Reiger and the weight is around 1,300kg.

This car will be on the island by the hands of João Sousa, who is teamed up with Helena Maia. This will be "my debut in Madeira and I will try to enjoy the fulfilment of a dream I have had since I was a kid. I'm not going to worry about results, trying, of course, to do the best I can. I wanted to take my Peugeot 306 Maxi to the island but its restoration is not yet complete. This participation is also the fulfilment of a "joke", a challenge made by Nuno Figueira last year. I can only thank my sponsors for this opportunity". The driver is 34 years old and has already been through various aspects of motorsport. He won the national VSH title in 2013.
