Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) reinforces Team Record the Journey (RTJ) with the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV as the military veteran charity team competes in this year’s Rebelle Rally.

The 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is the first plug-in hybrid electric vehicle to participate in the competition with Rebelle organizers allowing electrified vehicles to join the race for the first time.

Two U.S. Military Veterans Rachelle Ridenour and Kristie Levy, will navigate through the terrain and drive the Outlander PHEV in the event.

The 2020 Rebelle Rally, which started on Oct. 7 and will run through Sunday, Oct. 18, set off on the slopes of Lake Tahoe and will finish in the Imperial Dunes of Glamis, east of San Diego.

A video produced by MMNA encourages everyone to follow their team’s journey in the first all-women’s off-road rally in the U.S, according to PR Newswire.

"Record the Journey stands for those who never stop challenging, never give up and never stop driving ambition. We are proud to support them with the quality, dependability and reliability built into every Mitsubishi vehicle, and are excited to enter the first-ever PHEV in the Rebelle Rally," MMNA Chief Operating Officer Mark Chaffin said. "The Rebelle Rally is the ultimate test of teamwork, vehicle reliability and the ability to overcome obstacles. Our continued partnership with Team Record the Journey proudly stands in support of everyone who says 'I can do that' in the face of adversity."
