Leading automotive parts and accessories retailer Supercheap Auto and Motorsport Australia have today confirmed a multi-year partnership.

With Supercheap Auto signing on as the governing body’s Official Auto Parts Partner, grassroots competitors, clubs and officials will be big winners, with Supercheap Auto focused on giving back to the motorsport community through this new deal. This will include through Motorsport Australia’s popular Member Rewards program.
 
In line with the focus on grassroots, Supercheap Auto will also support the innovative FIA Girls On Track program in Australia, along with the popular junior development program, Ricciardo’s Racers. Both these programs are designed to give young Australians their first taste of motorsport in a welcoming and informative environment.
 
As part of the new deal, Supercheap Auto will also support both the Shannons Motorsport Australia Championships and the RSEA Safety Motorsport Australia Rally Championship with activations and offers for teams, officials, competitors and spectators as the exclusive auto parts partner.
 
Supercheap Auto is one of the most recognisable brands in Australian motorsport through various levels of sponsorship over recent decades, including as the naming rights partner for the Supercheap Auto TCR Australia Series, as well as being the naming rights partner for the Bathurst 1000 until 2020.
 
Since the inaugural Super Retail Group brand established in 1972, Supercheap Auto has grown into a major specialist retailer with over 300 stores across Australia and New Zealand and more than 4,500 team members. Supercheap Auto attributes its success and expansion to the emphasis placed on team members, stores and an extensive product range.
 
The product portfolio in the Supercheap Auto business comprises over 10,000 different items available in store.
