===Team and Driver Changes===*23XI Racing expanded to three full-time cars after buying a charter from Rick Ware Racing. 23XI signed Sammy Smith from Joe Gibbs Racing's Xfinity program to drive the #67 Toyota with sponsorship from Pilot Flying J, TMC Transportation, and Allstate Peterbilt Group. Smith's Xfinity crew chief Jeff Meendering moved up with him.
*Beard Motorsports signed Nick Sanchez to replace Sheldon Creed as the driver of their part-time #62 Chevrolet.
*Kaulig Racing signed Chandler Smith from their Xfinity program to replace A.J. Allmendinger in the #16 Chevrolet, as Allmendinger went back to semi-retirement in 2025.
*Kaulig Racing signed Sheldon Creed from Richard Childress Racing's Xfinity team to replace Austin Hill in the #31 Chevrolet. Creed brought primary sponsorship from Whelen Engineering. Kaulig also signed Creed's long-time crew chief Jeff Stankiewicz to replace Trent Owens as the crew chief of the #31 car.
*Richard Childress Racing signed crew chief Trent Owens from Kaulig Racing to replace Keith Rodden as Austin Dillon's crew chief.
*Richard Childress Racing expanded to three full-time cars after buying a charter from Rick Ware Racing. RCR then signed Austin Hill from Kaulig Racing to drive the #33 Chevrolet and reunited him with his former Xfinity crew chief Andy Street.
*Rick Ware Racing downsized to just one full-time car in 2025 as Shane van Gisbergen made the decision to return to Australian Supercars after spending just one full-time season in NASCAR.
