"It's a dream come true," Davison said. "All my life I have wanted to be a professional race driver and to now have that opportunity, and with Dick Johnson's team, is fantastic.
"I am really looking forward to working with Steve (Johnson) as he is a real benchmark for me . we have worked very well together this year."
The squad are happy to have secured Davison, even if it means the untimely departure of Seton.
"Will is probably the most exciting young driving talent we've seen in V8 Supercars since the arrival of Marcos Ambrose," five-time Australian champion Dick Johnson said.
"Since he tested with us early in the year he has impressed. Will did a fantastic job in the HPDC races at Queensland Raceway in the middle of the year, and did a very good job at Sandown and Bathurst, so we are delighted to have signed him long-term.
"We believe Will is going to be a major star in the years to come."
