A number of teams will enter the third season of Supercars' Gen3 era with new chassis, which will make their track debuts in coming weeks.

Five of 11 teams on the grid will commence the 2025 Repco Supercars Championship with at least one new chassis, totalling six new cars in Sydney.

All told, the primary 24-car Sydney 500 field will feature 10 cars built in 2023, eight in 2024 and six on debut. Matt Stone Racing's Cameron Crick wildcard takes the field to 25, with the wildcard chassis taking three wins between 2023 and 2024.

Walkinshaw Andretti United, Dick Johnson Racing, Brad Jones Racing, Matt Stone Racing and Team 18 will all debut new machinery at Round 1.

Chaz Mostert shook down his new chassis at the end of 2024, with WAU parking the chassis Mostert had raced from the start of 2023. Mostert raced his old chassis to 17 podiums, including three wins, in two seasons.

Ford rivals DJR will debut two new cars in Sydney for recruit Brodie Kostecki and Will Davison; Kostecki in the first of the team's Erebus Motorsport-built chassis, and Davison in an unraced PACE Innovations-built chassis.

Chevrolet teams BJR, MSR and Team 18 are building new cars for Andre Heimgartner, Cameron Hill and Anton De Pasquale respectively, with BJR shifting Jaxon Evans into Heimgartner’s 2023/24 chassis.

BJR is continuing repairs on Evans’ 2024 Camaro, which was heavily damaged in a major crash at the 2024 season-ending VAILO Adelaide 500 last November.

Team 18 has opted to build a new car for star recruit De Pasquale, who arrives from DJR. Team 18 debuted a new car for David Reynolds at the end of 2024, which was damaged in a crash similar to Evans’ in Adelaide.

The De Pasquale car is the fourth built by Melbourne-based squad Team 18, which like MSR, will turn its former cars into spare chassis.

Erebus, Tickford Racing and PremiAir Racing have all confirmed they won’t debut new cars in Sydney, nor are there immediate plans to do so in the first half of the season.

Triple Eight Race Engineering, however, is set to debut a new car for 2024 Supercars champion Will Brown later in the season. Triple Eight built two new cars for 2024, with Brown and Broc Feeney to begin 2025 in their existing cars. BRT is also set to debut a new car during the year.

Penrite Racing, meanwhile, is completing a chassis swap for Matt Payne, who is stepping into the car raced by Reynolds in 2023. Rookie Kai Allen will race the car driven by Richie Stanaway last season, which has been rebuild following the Kiwi's Adelaide crash.

Tickets for the season-opening round in Sydney, on February 21-23, are on sale now.
