Meet the Driver: Gloria Recio
Athlete Partnership
In 2025, Suparee proudly partnered with Rebelle Rally competitor Gloria Recio (IG: @kilo_the_bronco), supporting her Ford Bronco race vehicle with Suparee Hyper 5 light bars throughout one of the toughest off-road events in the world.
This partnership was more than sponsorship. It was a real-world test of product performance, durability, and trust — carried out across thousands of miles of desert terrain.
The Rebelle Rally is the world’s first and only all-women off-road navigation rally. Spanning thousands of miles across the deserts of the American Southwest, the event prohibits GPS and mobile navigation, relying instead on paper maps, compasses, and precision driving.
Long hours behind the wheel, unpredictable terrain, extreme weather shifts, and significant day–night temperature swings make Rebelle Rally a proving ground for both drivers and their vehicles.
In this environment, visibility isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity.
The Driver: Gloria Recio
Gloria Recio is a returning Rebelle Rally competitor, participating in both the 2024 and 2025 events. Known for her determination and disciplined driving, Gloria pushed her Bronco through sand, rock, mud, rain, and darkness — demanding absolute reliability from every component on her vehicle. Despite these challenges, SUPAREE Hyper 5 performance remained consistent: They are very well made. Strong, extremely bright, and great in fog.
As she puts it:
“When you’re competing in the Rebelle Rally, you quickly learn that visibility can make or break your days and nights.”
That understanding is exactly why she was excited to partner with Suparee for the 2025 rally.
