As the team embarks on its fourth season, Wallace remains the driver of the No. 23 Toyota Camry XSE and he is joined by Tyler Reddick in the team's No. 45 Toyota.
Reddick was initially slated to join the 23XI Racing following in 2024, but 23XI Racing sped up the process by buying Reddick out of his contract with Richard Childress Racing at the end of the 2022 season after Kurt Busch, 23XI's driver of the No. 45 suffered a career-ending injury in a qualifying crash at Pocono Raceway.
