00:00As the race toward the complete use of low-emission prototypes in Dakar Rally by the year 2030 gained space under the Dakar Future Programme,
00:08a new initiative, the Mission 1000 Challenge, was introduced in 2024.
00:14The purpose of Mission 1000 is to test cutting-edge technologies on the Dakar's varied off-road terrain with a total of 1,000 km of special stage.
00:24Participating projects will be categorised into the following groups.
00:28Fully electric, fully hydrogen-powered or hybrid technology engines.
00:34Although non-competitive, the Challenge sets defined criteria to rigorously evaluate vehicles and engage participants with a focus on exploring future technologies for tomorrow's mobility.
00:46Key aspects of these criteria include reliability demonstrated by the ability to complete the entire 1,000 km route,
00:54range and autonomy evaluated by the driving mode and pace, overall vehicle performance through a test at top speed,
01:00and the global awareness generated during the race, particularly in showcasing the technology of the vehicles.
01:06Competitors' main mission will be to complete the entire route to score a grand total of 100 points in the Challenge and will miss out on points for each unfinished stage.
01:15For example, if a competitor only completes 48 km of the 96 km in Stage 3, they will only yield 50% of the points at stake.
01:25Some bonus points will be awarded to address key criteria.
01:29Drive mode.
01:31Vehicles will be awarded extra points for driving skills depending on how their actual performances stack up against the established reference time.
01:39Eco mode, plus 10% over the reference time and beyond, 0 points.
01:44Normal mode, in the reference time, 5 bonus points.
01:48Sport mode, minus 10% and under, 10 bonus points.
01:55Launch Control, Sprint.
01:58Each competitor will be required to cover a distance of 200 meters from a standing start.
02:03The competitors achieving the best time on two-wheel vehicles and in four-plus-wheel vehicles will pick up 10 bonus points.
02:11And Fan Boost.
02:13The riders and drivers registered for Mission 1000 will get regular opportunities to tell their stories and explain the ins and outs of their tech on the Dakar's social media and digital platforms.
02:24During rest day, at the middle of the rally, fans will get to vote for their favorite project.
02:29The fan's favorite project will be awarded 10 bonus points per vehicle after the vote, the second will receive 5 points, and the third will receive 2 points.
02:39As several projects define the Dakar off-road routes and move closer to maturity, 2030 remains the target date for all categories to be racing in low-emission prototypes.
02:49As forever, the Dakar is an open laboratory to test and promote tomorrow's technologies.
