MAIN TOPIC POWERED BY WARN  

REBELLE RALLY

For listeners who might not know, could you explain to us what the Rebelle Rally is?

How did each of you prepare for this event over the last times you have competed?

How were you chosen by VW?
What is an ID.4 (pronounced ID4)?

Does the ID.4 change from AWD to 2WD (front or rear) to save on battery power when it doesn’t need the extra traction? Can the ID.4 provide any sort of simulated diff locker for when times get tough?

Emily, how did the ID.4s range come into play with planning your routes each day?

What other vehicles, EV, hybrid or otherwise, competed in the Rebelle Rally this year?

Besides the navigational challenges that are part of the rally, what other challenges did the rally bring?

How did you guys charge the ID.4?

We heard that you got to spend some time with Tanner Foust.  What was his involvement with you two and the rig?

Do you both plan to compete in the future again?

Mercedes, you’ve been freelancing for more than 3 years now.  Where are some places that our listeners can find your work and what kind of articles are you writing?

Emily, If anyone wants to contact you to navigate for their next rally, what is the best way for them to reach you?
