LONDON: Factory Media, the leading specialist in lifestyle sports, is helping Jeep in the UK to promote the four-wheel drive Renegade sport utility vehicle (SUV) by unveiling a series of videos to help explore the past, present and future ‘renegades’ of its surf and mountain biking sports ambassadors.
Jeep’s Renegade SUV will be the spearhead of the story to help extreme sports presenters Tim Warwood and Adam Gendle go off-road to meet the Trek Factory Racing cycling team of mountain bikers Dan, Rachel and Gee Atherton as well as big wave surfer Andrew Cotton.
The series of
videos
are currently being released and is being called ‘Ultimate Renegades’, which will reveal the adventures of the Atherton Jeep ambassadors.
Warwood and Gendle will give an insight into the sporting personalities as well as showing exclusive behind-the-scenes content and teaser footage.
“It’s great the likes of the Athertons are able to travel to off-road remote locations in their Renegades and test themselves to the extreme. The Renegade is literally enabling them to go anywhere and do anything,” said Jeep UK head of brand Damien Dally.
The Ultimate Renegades series are available on Jeep UK’s
