preparation and equipment

Get detailed advice on how to prepare your vehicle and what equipment to bring to ensure your comfort and safety during the rally.

The Watt Rally is open to all 100% electric vehicles. The key is to choose a reliable, comfortable vehicle suited to long distances.

Yes, you can participate in the Watt Rally with a rented electric vehicle. Simply make sure your rental contract authorizes travel in all the countries crossed and that your insurance covers the vehicle for the entire duration of the adventure.

Medical repatriation insurance is included in the Comfort and Premium packages of the Watt Rally. If you choose the Low Cost package, it is not included. It is therefore strongly recommended to take out repatriation insurance covering all the countries crossed.

Yes. Before departure, we recommend having the general condition of your vehicle checked: tires, brakes, lighting, and wipers. Also remember to verify that the charging system is working properly. A properly maintained vehicle will allow you to hit the road in the best conditions.

The Watt Rally takes place on roads and does not require any special equipment. Simply bring the mandatory safety equipment, a phone with its charger, a first aid kit, weather-appropriate clothing, and some personal items to comfortably enjoy the different stages. A more detailed list of recommended equipment will be provided before departure.

03

route and navigation

Learn to navigate and stay safe during the Watt Rally with essential tips on communication, navigation, and support.

Midday lunches are not provided. Each crew must therefore organize themselves, either by buying provisions before departure for a picnic or by going to local restaurants.

The Watt Rally will take you through a wide variety of roads and landscapes throughout the stages: major routes, secondary roads, coastal sections, countryside, forests, and scenic roads. As you progress toward Norway, the scenery will evolve to reveal increasingly spectacular landscapes, including lakes, mountains, fjords, and vast Nordic expanses. Traffic conditions and weather may naturally vary throughout the route.

For efficient navigation in Norway during the Watt Rally, we recommend using specific navigation apps, which will be suggested at departure. The rally route will also be available on a dedicated app before the official start. This preparation will ensure you can follow the planned itinerary at any time, regardless of mobile connectivity.

Throughout the Watt Rally, you will stay connected to other crews and the organization through a dedicated communication group. You can exchange information, share tips, help each other on the road, and follow important updates communicated during the adventure.
The various meetups and gathering points planned along the route will also allow you to regularly reconnect with the entire Watt Rally community.

The Watt Rally days are designed to allow you to easily recharge your vehicle throughout the route. Suitable charging stations are available along the different itineraries and you can organize your stops according to your vehicle’s range. Managing recharges is fully part of the adventure, while giving you the freedom to drive and stop at your own pace.

04

life on board and logistics

Essential information on daily organization, accommodations, meals, and logistical management throughout the rally.

Each day alternates between driving, discoveries, challenges, and social moments. You hit the road in the morning at your own pace to reach the different checkpoints before meeting up with other crews at the evening stage.

Departures generally take place around 9 AM each morning. The time may vary slightly depending on the stage and will be communicated to participants in advance.

It depends on the package chosen. The Low Cost package does not include accommodation. For packages that include hotels, solo participants receive a single room. For two-person crews, accommodation is provided in a double or twin room, depending on availability at the establishments.

Yes. The Watt Rally is designed to give you real freedom throughout the day. You can drive at your own pace, stop to explore the places you pass through, have lunch, or simply enjoy the scenery, while respecting the different checkpoints and scheduled times.

Opt for compact luggage that is easy to transport and well organized, to maintain maximum comfort on board throughout the route. Keep items you will need during the day within reach and plan a small, easily accessible bag for each stage. The goal is simple: travel light and fully enjoy the adventure without unnecessary burden.

05

community and experience

Engage with the Watt Rally community, share your experiences, and stay informed through our official communication channels.
