The 2014 Rally Sweden was a motor racing event for rally cars that was held over four days between 5 and 8 February, which marked the 62nd running of the Rally Sweden. The rally was based in the town of Karlstad and was contested over 24 special stages, covering a total of 323.54 km (201.04 mi) in competitive stages.

The event was won by Finland's Jari-Matti Latvala of the Volkswagen Motorsport team,[1] taking his third victory in Sweden,[2] and the ninth victory of his WRC career. He finished 53.6 seconds clear of his team-mate Andreas Mikkelsen – taking his best WRC finish – while the podium was completed by Mads Østberg, a further 5.9 seconds in arrears.[3] Latvala's victory allowed him to take the championship lead from another team-mate, Sébastien Ogier, who could only finish sixth in Sweden. In the supporting WRC-2 category, Karl Kruuda edged out Jari Ketomaa by 2.3 seconds for the victory.[4]
