The Tatuus FT-60 is an open-wheel formula race car, jointly designed, developed and built by Italian manufacturer Tatuus and Toyota Gazoo Racing New Zealand that has been used in the Formula Regional Oceania Championship since 2020.[4][5]
The vehicle is equipped with a Toyota engine which has also more displacement than the Alfa Romeo and Renault Sport engines used in the Tatuus F3 T-318 and Tatuus FR-19 race cars.[4]
After the cancellation of the 2022 Toyota Racing Series, the cars were loaned to the W Series for the races in Barcelona and Singapore in order to reduce the transport costs of delivering Tatuus F3 T-318 cars.[6][7]
