Sébastien Loeb and Daniel Elena were the overall reigning rally winners, but they would not defend their titles. Citroën Total World Rally Team, the team they drove for in 2012, when the Rally New Zealand held a World Rally Championship event last time, were the defending manufacturers' winners. [3] However, they would not defend the rally either as they withdrew from the championship at the end of 2019. [4]

Kalle Rovanperä and Jonne Halttunen won their sixth rally of the season and became the 2022 World Champions. Their team, Toyota Gazoo Racing WRT, were the manufacturers' winners. [5] Hayden Paddon and John Kennard won the World Rally Championship-2 category. [6]
