Warner INEOS Grenadier Shines at the Rebelle Rally

As the Rebelle Rally celebrates its 10th anniversary this October, Warner INEOS Grenadier is poised to make a significant mark. With four teams representing the brand, including two works entries and two satellite teams, Grenadier is not just participating; it is proving its mettle against the backdrop of America's challenging terrains.

The Rebelle Rally is a legendary 8-day navigation challenge covering 2,500 kilometers across the tough landscapes of Nevada and California. This competition is unlike any other, as it forbids the use of modern conveniences like GPS and phones, pushing participants to rely solely on maps, compasses, and their rugged vehicles. For the Grenadier, this event serves as a true test of capability; success here validates the strength of the vehicle beyond traditional advertising.

Elise Young, navigator for Team 128, describes her experience in the rally: "The Rebelle has shown me what real strength looks like. Setting aside ego, focusing on clear communication, and working to bring out the best in my teammate. Every rally makes me more resilient and more adaptable." This sentiment is echoed by Tony Warner, dealer principal at Warner INEOS Grenadier, who believes that while logos and ads provide visibility, genuine experience fosters a sense of belonging. "Our works teams prove the Grenadier’s capability, and our satellites show it is lived by real owners. Warner INEOS Grenadier's role is to make that possible."

Team Line-up and Experience

The Grenadier’s promising performance at the Rebelle Rally is underscored by the impressive experience of its teams:

• - Works Teams: These elite entries are fully backed by Warner and designed to contend for podium positions.

- Team #128 “Grins & Grit” - Featuring Susan Pieper and Elise Young, this duo finished 8th overall in 2024, gaining recognition within the rally community. Young has been described as a podium-worthy navigator by Rebelle founder Emily Miller.
- Team #127 “Shift Happens” - Compromise skills with Michelle Kerby and Sabrina Howells, both multi-year competitors well-versed in the high-pressure environment of the Rebelle Rally. Howells, in particular, boasts a remarkable four podium finishes in previous rallies.

• - Satellite Teams: These competitors may not be official entries but are backed by Warner, expanding the Grenadier story in meaningful ways.

- Team #168 “SWAG” - Led by Eliza Coleman, a Hollywood stunt driver, alongside rookie Amy Milyard, an Army veteran making her debut in rally culture.
- Team #198 “Aurora Rex” - This pair includes Kathryn Goacher, co-owner of Alliance Auto Care, and Kristian Rene, a strategist and recurrent competitor in previous rallies.

Why This Event is Significant

In marking ten years of the Rebelle Rally, an event dedicated to women’s off-road racing, the importance of real ownership and community comes to the forefront. Four of Warner's eight competitors are Grenadier owners, showcasing the capabilities of the vehicles they drive day-to-day.

The teams' combined podium history and proven navigation skills make Warner Grenadier an exciting contender in this edition of the rally. At its core, the event helps to reshape the narrative of strength, adventure, and grit through the lens of women empowerment in motorsports.
