The Rebelle Rally is the longest off-road rally in the U.S. It doesn’t allow GPS or any digital wayfinding across its 1,600-mile, 8-day course – only paper maps and a compass. The Rebelle Rally, now in its seventh year, is also just for women.

Rivian has competed in the rally for the past three years, helping found the “Electrified Category” back in 2020 with a pre-production R1T. Each year since, we’ve continued to test, learn and push the limits of our vehicles, competing last year for the first time with an all-Rivian team driving, navigating and supporting the vehicles.

For the upcoming 2023 Rebelle Rally, Rivian is giving every U.S. employee the opportunity to compete.

“We get to drive the vehicles we helped build. It’s an incredible experience, and an amazing opportunity to learn.”

Selection for the Rivian team is underway, with training set to start in mid-April. The 2023 Rebelle Rally takes place October 12-23. Positions for driver and navigator are open to all U.S. Rivian employees identifying as female, with support and technician roles open to all.

For a look at the experience of training for and competing in the Rebelle Rally with Team Rivian, check out our short film here. In it, you can ride along with Rivian employees Nicole, Lilly Macaruso, Alexandra “Alex” Anderson and Rosanna “Ro” Nuch as they go from “zero to rally” preparing, practicing and ultimately finishing the 2022 Rebelle Rally.

We’ll keep you posted as this year’s rally team comes together.
