Esker Silver R2 finally marketed by Rivian! Hi-res official images (Updated With More)

If my current car wasn’t a very similar silver color I’d be looking at getting this especially since it’s $0. But alas Forest green is IN!

I hear ya! I love the color -- my last silver car was a 2013 VW Jetta Sportwagen TDI. I loved that car, and rarely washed it because it never looked dirty. But I've never had a green car before, so Forest Green for me.

Okay, that's nice. But it's still gray.

I hear you! And the other colors didn't cost extra.

Pewter, that's what I think of when I see Esker.

I'm calling BS on the 1980 photo. I'm old and was just beginning to drive then. There was a lot of brown vehicles the. When I say a lot. I mean A LOT!

This is exactly the configuration I am ordering when I actually get the chance too!

I had a beige car in 1980. Beige isn't brown, is it? My parents' cars in the 60's thru 80's were light green, red, yellow, dark green, brown, and another brown. I think they went with all white cars after that.

In those days I think black was only allowed for police cars and hearses.

One of my favorite color cars I owned was a Jeep Liberty in Bright Silver. Esker might be my choice for R2.

They should rename it El Boringo.

Those pics remind me of the silver on my 21 Mockey. That year Ford changed their silver to have black metal flake and it really created some great visuals along the body contours.

I'd say the photo is somewhat accurate...

Below is the Jeep I owned in 1981, below that is the current Jeep I own

I'd take it over something like Launch Green, and wouldn't even have to pay $2,000 extra for the luxury. Launch Green reminds me of the cheap plastic from my old G.I. Joe vehicles and plastic Army men I played with in the 80s

Which frankly is why I kinda want it. Well…that and I can’t get a Red Canyon or Rivian Blue R2

From the Rivian Facepalm page today.

It looks fantastic. If I don’t win one of these EV raffles I’m getting a 2028 RWD Long-Range R2 Standard in Esker Silver next Spring.

Red Canyon is so nice in person. I went with Limestone but saw the Red Canyon with the sun hitting it and I was like wow that would easily be my second choice.

Green is considered boring on this forum bc many people have or had R1’s and it’s still an available color today. For those of us who came from Tesla or just about every other car manufacturer, green is unusual, fun, and cool looking. However, outside of purple also I don’t think any of the Rivian colors are unusual…they’re pretty normal. Which is why a lot of propel are upset about the mundane choices!

I'd rock the hell out of this!
