The total distance of the competition for SUVs will be 8,739 kilometers, for trucks — 9,209 kilometers, and for motorcycles and quads — 9,395 kilometers. At the same time, the special stages will take up 5,220, 5,212, and 5,222 kilometers, respectively.

The route will pass through Argentina, Bolivia, and Chile. The starting point will be Rosario, the third-largest city in Argentina, and the rally-marathon will finish on January 18 in Valparaiso, located in Chile.

This year, the Ukrainian crew Sixt Ukraine, unfortunately, will not take the start: the team disbanded after the tragic death of its leader Vadim Nesterchuk in the desert of the UAE. However, special attention is likely to be drawn to the truck race, where the Russian team "KAMAZ-master" plans to regain its former positions.
