The series runs concurrent with the FIA World Baja Cup and FIM Bajas World Cup, alongside the World Rally-Raid Championship and FIA Middle East Baja Cup. Started in 2021, the series was designed to attract new entrants to rally raid and allow them to run for an official FIA title.[1] It was renamed to the European Baja Cup in 2024.[2]
