blame cloud cdn server, some regions gets update slowly...With servers and software running the show, I just don't understand why (for the time being) my Configurator (without making any changes to it) remains unaffected by price changes. I know this must be a pipe-dream that will vaporize shortly but for now I can imagine that its exempt for some reason.
Here's the 'now' pricing for a non-LE R1S reserved only about two months ago. Although I also hold an R1T LE reservation made mid-2020.
I closed my browser, logged in & out at least 4 times, did all that again and still unchanged.... (for now)
I got the price increase email and I signed up the first day in Nov 18' for and LE R1S and had a march/April delivery date. that is fucked
Nope, March/April R1T LE here and I got the email.
Only folks outside the industry think 20 percent is crazy, those of us in the auto parts industry are surprised it is not more. Our exhaust system factory DOUBLED the price on pretty much everything during the last two years, and catalytic converters are three and four and five times the costs of two years ago. All stainless and aluminum materials costs are up far more than 20 percent.
just go into your configuration and it will change. My R1S LE went from 78k to 92k. crossbar price up, floor mat price up...everything across the board...this moves the R1S too close to the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo...I'll keep my reservation to get a test drive in Denver, selling my shares before they get crushed when 50% of reservations get cancelled, and sell my Rivian gear on eBayCongrats. Great news. I hope it goes smoothly and you get what you expected. I am in the disposable category. Got the email about price increase. Even though my page still show the old price the email says they are not finished with me and they will update it. I will keep th ereservation until this page is changed for me:
Nope, March/April R1T LE here and I got the email.
Holy Molly, price of my R1T just jumped
Holy Molly, my R1T just jumped about $18,000. Are you crazy? I went from $80,800 to $97,700. My old configuration I didn’t have to pay for white paint now it’s 1,750 not to mention a boat load of other things that was once included.
I'm a day one (probably minute one) 11/2018, LE preorder holder and CS confirmed the price hike applies to my LE build (CA bay area) ....so it seems to be selectively targeted at people who got a guide contact and are in some form of the process of purchasing. I never got a guide contact. Seems arbitrary, some folks who pre-ordered more than 1.5 years after me did get guide contacts. I'm sure they had to do this, but finding a different way of messaging this (perhaps a year ago when it was clear inflation and supplier shortages were real) would have been smarter than right before people were expecting sales to start. These new prices seem to be more in line with the market tbh, so it was expected, but they shouldn't have marked expectations for so long at the low price. Curious what will happen to demand and the stock in the next earnings call.
Is that under 5000 lb? how did it do towing that ?My current stable includes a Ridgeline, picture below with the wife and Pup after coming back from an SCCA race weekend. It's good, but still looking forward to my Rivian. When the Rivian arrives likely sell my 08 Dakota, we are a two truck family and car parts business and one truck is never enough. By the way, that's our commercial building with 100 solar panels on it, when we get a Rivian truck it will charge for FREE.
I would just contact them and state all of that...I am sure they will make it right
