A new generation of cars was introduced by the series in 2020. The new car featured a brand-new body design inspired by the American NASCAR series, with composite body styles based on the Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang available for participating teams to choose from; the NASCAR Brasil Sprint Race is one of two NASCAR series in which Toyota does not participate, the other being the NASCAR Canada Series. The new generation of cars featured an improved aerodynamic package and was claimed to have a 20% increase in corner speed, despite the removal of the detached rear wing in favor of an integrated rear spoiler.[11]
The new-generation car underwent several changes for the 2022 season. New racing seats, inspired by those used in NASCAR, were introduced to better protect drivers from head and neck injuries caused by lateral movement during crashes. A rear stabilizer bar was added, allowing drivers to choose between three settings: Soft, Hard, and Off. The engine also received an updated electronic fuel injection system to improve its acceleration.[10]
The NASCAR Brasil Sprint Race featured Pirelli as the series' exclusive tire supplier. Pirelli has been the exclusive tire supplier since the inaugural season in 2012, with the exception of the 2020 season, when the series used Yokohama tires instead.
