Jonas Andersson (born 1 January 1977) is a Swedish rally co-driver. Currently, he is the co-driver of Gus Greensmith.[1]

Rally career

[edit]

Jonas Andersson began his rally career in 2002, co-driving for Per-Gunnar Andersson. In the 2002 Rally Sweden, he made his WRC debut in a Renault Clio RS.[1]

From 2009, he started to partner with the Norwegian rally driver Mads Østberg.[1] In the 2011 Rally Sweden, they achieved their first podium finish.[2] One year later, in Portugal, the crew won their first and only WRC victory after Mikko Hirvonen's disqualification.[3]

Starting from 2017, Andersson began to cooperate with Pontus Tidemand. They won the 2017 WRC-2 title at Škoda Motorsport in a Škoda Fabia R5.[4]

The 2022 season saw Andersson moved to M-Sport, co-driving for Gus Greensmith on a full-season basis.[5]
