The Tatuus FT-60 is an open-wheel formula race car, designed, developed and built by Italian manufacturer Tatuus that has been used in the Formula Regional Oceania Championship since 2020.[4][5]

The vehicle is equipped with a Toyota engine which has also more displacement than the Alfa Romeo and Renault Sport engines used in the Tatuus F.3 T-318 and Tatuus FR-19 race cars.[4]

After the cancellation of the 2022 Toyota Racing Series, the cars were loaned to the W Series for the races in Barcelona and Singapore in order to reduce the transport costs of delivering Tatuus F.3 T-318 cars.[6][7]
