The Kia Telluride X-Pro is set to compete in the 2024 Rebelle Rally, marking the vehicle’s third year in the grueling off-road competition.
Kia America’s highly decorated SUV, which has achieved a podium finish every year in the X-Cross class, returns with a series of new modifications aimed at securing another top spot.
Behind the wheel, professional rally driver Verena Mei is back for her fourth year, accompanied by seasoned navigator Kendra Miller, forming a strong duo for the challenge.

“The Telluride has consistently proven its capability by earning a spot on the podium every year it’s competed,” said Steve Center, COO and EVP of Kia America. Built with input from in-house engineers and BAJA FORGED, the X-Pro features significant upgrades.
Its modifications include custom front and rear bumpers for improved approach and departure angles, BFGoodrich All-Terrain tires, and 18-inch Method Rally Series wheels. The vehicle’s suspension has also been upgraded with a KW Motorsports long-travel system and KING bump stops, enhancing its durability for the eight-day event.
A standout feature of this year’s Telluride X-Pro is its striking new wrap, designed by Jaiwon Lee, a senior student at ArtCenter College of Design. The topographic map livery, created through a collaboration with the renowned design school, adds a unique visual touch, continuing Kia’s tradition of innovation both on and off the rally course.
With its improved capabilities and a strong team, the modified Kia Telluride X-Pro is set to make another bold statement at the 2024 Rebelle Rally.
