The FIA World Baja Cup, formerly known as the FIA World Cup for Cross-Country Bajas, is a baja rally series organized by the FIA, culminating with a champion driver, co-driver, and team across each category.
History Starting with the 2002 season, the previous FIA's International Cup for Cross-Country Bajas was joined with the FIA Cross-Country Rally World Cup to form the FIA World Cup for Cross-Country Rallies. From the beginning of the 2019 season the cup was once again split, with the World Cup for Cross Country Bajas being held alongside the competition for "baja" style rally raids.
It was renamed to the World Baja Cup in 2024.
From the 2022 season, the competition runs separately to the World Rally-Raid Championship, and together with the FIM Bajas World Cup. It also has regional counterparts with the FIA European Baja Cup and FIA Middle East Baja Cup.
