Ford Bronco Sport Team Tops X-CROSS Class at All-female Rebelle Rally Desert Race

By Tim Keenan

All four Bronco teams finished in the 4×4 Class top 10, and the all-new Mustang Mach-E Rally successfully completed its first Rebelle Rally.

“We’re proud of our teams, all of which used their driving and hand-calculated navigation skills to complete a very demanding off-road rally,” says Mark Rushbrook, global director of Ford Performance Motorsports. “The Rebelle Rally also demonstrates the capabilities, durability, and agility of our vehicles, including serving as a test bed for the Mustang Mach-E Rally plus Bronco Raptor, Bronco Wildtrak, and Bronco Sport.”

The No. 131 Team Velocity two-door Bronco WildTrak, featuring 2022 X-CROSS Rookie of the Year winners Karisa Haydon and Trista Smith, battled back through the rankings after a quick-start and finished sixth.
