Rebelle Rally Competitors Driving A Toyota Highlander

The Rebelle Rally is the first-ever women’s-only off-road navigation rally event. It’s an intense, 10-day (8 days of competition), 2,500 km (1,553.43 miles) race across the Nevada and California deserts. There are no GPS devices or cell phones allowed, and competitors are only allowed to use a compass, a paper map, a plotter, and a calculator. 

Food and Base Camp shelter is provided when you sign up for the event, with Michelin Star Chef Drew Deckman handling the cooking.

A Dedicated Toyota Team

Toyota is committing to running the event again in October of this year, with 12 people joining 6 groups from various positions within the Toyota North America representatives, including CALTY Design, Manufacturing, Production Engineering, and Research and Development. 

“This is an important event and beneficial opportunity to the women of our company,” said Kristen Tabar, group vice president, Advanced Mobility Research and Development at Toyota Motor North America. “The Rebelle Rally is a unique and empowering experience that aligns with our values of pushing boundaries, learning by doing, and fostering a supportive and inclusive culture. We believe that our team members will not only have a lot of fun and learn a lot from the adventure, but also bring back valuable insights and skills to their work and their teams.

Friends and family of competitors are able to track the teams’ progress online, and Toyota will once again be the Presenting Sponsor of the event’s Live Webcast for the second year in a row. Toyota is also a Silver Sponsor.
