Drive and enjoy your classic car – especially in these times

Especially at a time when the automobile is increasingly becoming a battery encased in a body, the historic automobile should and must live on as a contemporary witness.

                            “The flame must be passed on, not the ashes”

The historic automobile with a combustion engine is the core of automotive culture, social change and growing prosperity – worldwide.

As much as the environment and the climate need to be taken care of, the historic automobile should be cared for, driven and passed on to younger generations. A formative part of our culture cannot simply disappear.

The RAID events have been committed to this goal since 1991 – for well over 30 years. The joy of driving, of experiencing and feeling a historic automobile on a long journey and in sporting competition – this too should be possible in the future.

We cultivate automotive culture and celebrate the history of this ingenious invention. Our rallies were the first to strive for climate neutrality; we are pioneers in getting young drivers excited about classic cars. We choose the most beautiful routes and let our participants participate in the diversity of countries and regions through which the RAID leads.

We are pleased to present our history as well as our upcoming rallies to you.
