So here's a dumb question with the black wood does it feel like it should be a $2000 option?
Mine still shows it as included??
Rivian R1T R1S [Update: Official look at new OC interior w/ dark-stained ash wood] Ocean Coast with BM wood trim are shipping soon according to service center guide 1660847714591

Is it a $2k option for the Explore package and included with Adventure?

Also I prefer the older wood color, this may actually switch me to FE

Looks like the explore package is gone in the visualizer with the update too?

I think it may be included if you have an order pre price increase. My configurator shows it included too.

It's a 2k option for post march 1 preorders. Seems a bit odd to charge 2k now that the trim is the same, making it the same price as FE. It would be better to make it a 1k upgrade instead for the newer orders.

Just spoke w customer service and they indicated a 4th interior combo (in addition to the revised OC w BM wood) would be announced in the next few weeks. He described it as essentially the ocean coast but with more white accents included

And I bet they plan to charge extra for it. How convenient. Same shit they pulled with the floor mats.

The cheaper Explore R1T is now history. Rivian claimed a low percentage of reservation holders chose it so they dropped it.

I think it’s a great financial move. They should have offered two interior trims instead of 3. BM and OC choices would have been perfect. They could have charged a $1k premium for OC just like Tesla does.

"wrapped leather dash" from the email. Looks like I'm sticking with the BM wood as I don't like this...

Not really different than any of the exterior colors being around $2000 options.

I hate the vegan dash option. Why even offer it? It just adds vendor and assembly complexity. I'm a strong believer in the KISS principle.

Becuase they already sourced it for the 47 Explore trim preorder holders that they just canceled on...

I'd bet that within a very short period of time, there will be multiple texture/color wrap/overlay options for the dash and all the trim BM portion.

In particular, I'm surprised that there hasn't already been one with carbon fiber pattern to wrap over all the interior BM trim by some accessory maker.

I'm okay with new BM wood on OC - just ok. Definitely don't want the vinyl dash. The black and gray combo is bit on the cold side but its significantly better than all dark cave-like interior for R1S.
