Group T5

In relation to motorsport, Group T5 is a set of technical specifications for prototype cross-country trucks used in off-road Cross-Country Rallying (also called Rally Raid).

The group is governed by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) and defined in appendix J, article 287 of its International Sporting Code.

[2] Trucks eligible for Group T5 must comply with a fixed set of rules according to Appendix J, article 287.

Because of safety regulations, the cabs have a very strong homologated roll cage.
