Organisers are pleased to report strong international interest in the Professional Driver World Championship 2026 (PDWC26). This year’s competition is taking place 9–12 September 2026 in Eppelheim near Heidelberg, Germany.
Professional driver associations from across the globe have already confirmed their interest in sending national teams to Germany for the Professional Driver World Championship. To date, participants from 21 countries have pre-registered. The challengers will compete in six vehicle categories, demonstrating professional skill, vehicle control, and eco-driving techniques.
Drivers qualify through national championships organised by UICR member associations and their partners, representing their country at the world championship.
The best drivers from all categories compete for the prestigious overall title of Professional Driver World Champion. National Professional Driver Associations that still wish to register their country’s professional driver team for PDWC 2026 are kindly invited to contact the organising committee directly.
ASIAN TRUCKER WILDCARD: For 2026, Asian Trucker has arranged a WildCard with the organisers of the PDW26. Contestants from Malaysia may enter directly into the finals, registering through Asian Trucker, without having to compete on national level to qualify first.
