The off-road navigation rally covers 1,500 miles through harsh southwest desert terrain and combines old-school navigation, off-road comradery and advanced powertrains over eight days. For the eighth consecutive year, the Jeep brand is supporting the event, and for the third time it’s sending the Jeep Wrangler 4xe to secure the top podium finish. “At the Jeep brand, we strive to build and deliver the best, most capable off-road 4x4 vehicles on the planet, and now that 4xe is the new 4x4, we continue to push the limits of our Jeep Wrangler 4xe at the Rebelle Rally, an extremely demanding off-road event,” said Jim Morrison, senior vice president and head of Jeep brand North America. “We also have the best community of owners who demand that we build 4x4s that enable them to do extraordinary things and go to extraordinary places. Supporting the Rebelle Rally gives us the chance to support the amazing women from our Jeep community and showcase just how capable the Wrangler 4xe is, and the fact that there is absolutely no range anxiety.”Jeep brand is again teaming up Nena Barlow and Teralin Petereit for the third consecutive year. Team 4xEventure will drive a 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe Rubicon and will work to defend the overall, electrified and bone stock titles won the last two years in a stock Jeep Wrangler 4xe.Hailing from Arizona, Barlow owns and operates Barlow Adventures, which provides four-wheel-drive training, Jeep rentals and guided trips in the southwest U.S. Utah-based Petereit is a nurse and has found a hobby in off-roading. She has logged countless trails and competitions over the years. Barlow and Petereit are two of the most accomplished Rebelle Rally veterans, with Petereit making the podium every year she has competed. Barlow and Petereit have both competed six times in the Rebelle Rally, this is their third year competing as a team.“When the going gets tough, I have found nothing to be more capable and going to get you home than a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon,” said Barlow, Team 4xEventure. “I don’t have to worry about what terrain lies ahead on the rally, I can focus on navigating to those checkpoints. The 4xe takes it to another level with power, range and versatility with the hybrid system. Most people don’t know we ran out of gas one mile from the finish line last year and completed our journey in electric mode and won.”“I’ve been fortunate to find myself on the podium every year for the past six years, and I attribute that to my teammates, partners and our Jeep Wrangler 4xe. Having confidence in our Wrangler to take us through whatever terrain the rally throws at us allows us to focus on collecting checkpoints,” said Petereit, Team 4xEventure. “I’ve had the opportunity to experience the evolution of the Jeep Wrangler, competing in a TJ, JK, JL and now a JL 4xe. Each year, I am impressed by the capability and reliability of the Wrangler and am looking forward to seeing what we can do with the new 2024 Wrangler 4xe in this year’s competition.”Jeep brand joins new Rebelle Rally partner Pennzoil in supporting rookie team Full Synd Sisters (#149) behind the wheel of a stock Jeep Wrangler 4xe.
