VW North America has unveiled the ID.4 AWD PRO, an off-road-prepared SUV designed with Rhys Millen and Tanner Foust for the all-female Rebelle Rally. The powertrain is stock, but the rest is not. The suspension is much more robust, the underchassis is protected at multiple vulnerable points, there is an expedition rack on the roof, and improved steering. Artist Liz Kuz came up with a vivid livery for the car inspired by the varied landscapes where the race will take place.
Dual motors supply 299 PS and 460 Nm of torque to the wheels, and the driving range in
the U.S. spec amounts to 400 km. The rally raid will begin
tomorrow, October 7, and will span around 2,500 kilometers across
Nevada, Arizona and California.
VW ID.4 had already taken part in various
races before (watch the video for a reminder), and Tanner Foust in particular
drove an ID.4 during the Mexican 1000 Rally this spring. Other manufacturers,
such as Infiniti and Lexus, also came up with their own Rebelle vehicles.
