Kaulig Racing will be SVG's in both his Xfinity and Cup starts this year as the three-time Supercars champion aims to quickly advance through the world of stock car racing.
He is under contract at Trackhouse Racing, which has formed an alliance with Kaulig.
SVG won in his Cup debut in spectacular fashion last year, taking victory at the Chicago Street Course for Trackhouse.
It was already announced that he would run the full NASCAR Xfinity Series schedule with Kaulig, as well as seven Cup races, but the team for those Cup starts was not specified.
On Thursday, Kaulig confirmed that those starts will come in the team's #16 car, which will also feature A.J. Allmendinger and Josh Williams throughout the 2024 season.
As previously announced, the New Zealander will compete at COTA, the Coke 600, Chicago, Watkins Glen, the Las Vegas playoff race and both Talladega races.
“When I first started talking with Trackhouse about moving to the U.S., we had no idea how many races we could secure but I knew I wanted to be with that team and organisation,” said van Gisbergen in a release from the team.
“There has been a lot of hard work to get to this point and I could not be happier to know that I get to race for an Xfinity Series championship and then get a proper go at the Cup Series on road courses and ovals. Kaulig is a proven winner in both the Xfinity and the Cup Series, and I know with the alliance with Trackhouse, this will be an incredible first year for me in NASCAR.”
