Dual motor highway efficiency

[Golfer04]

Can anybody on here who has a dual motor R1T on 21s give an approximation of the highway efficiency? I'm going to trade my quad on 20s, and trying to decide between a new dual motor or a slightly (under 10,000 miles) used quad from a dealer. Used quad is $10,000 cheaper. I've got 58,000 miles on mine with an early VIN. Don't trust it to go over 60,000 without it costing me $$. Has had repeated problems, but love the truck. Used VIN is over 23,000.

Also made recent 80 mile trip mostly highway, mostly around 65 to 70mph in 30' weather, returned about 2.60m/kWh. Interestingly, I get better efficiency on long highway trips, probably due to short in-town trips and cold weather.

What's the trade offer?

DM has less warranty. If the quad has really low mileage I would say it's a good deal bc it has already taken some depreciation and it's a later VIN. KBB says mid to upper 40s for trade.

2.5 mi /kw. But everybody drives differently. 2 in the city if it's not freezing. I have 22s and an S

Obviously Rivian won't give a trade offer until you place an order ???, other trade offers are 52,000 (Tesla on an X) and 53,000 from dealer.

Did you purchase pre price hike? If so, you can just put AS 275/60/20 tires on and save some money. My R1S quad in conserve mode on 20’s with AS tires gets the same efficiency as dual motor. I did a test from 100-0 charge on my daily driving. Took 10 days to drain, mostly city driving, I went 343 miles in conserve mode. Same test I only went 290 in all purpose.
On a 140 mile trip on Florida turnpike at 75mph my S was averaging 2.25.
Two pictures on Florida turnpike. R1S at 85mph averaging 2.02 mi/kwh.
My R1T quad with 21’s at 84mph averaging 1.90 mi/kwh.

Thank you!! This is information I was after. I have Michelin CrossClimate 2s on now. In conserve on interstate (in warmer temps) I get 2.1-2.2, but I don't drop the suspension to save the tires. I normally drive 73 mph?.

Now I would be interested to see the efficiency numbers of the dual motor with 20’s on 275/60/20 AS tires. I don’t think anyone has done that yet.

If I keep this truck when I need new tires I'm going with a pure AS tire. These are a "hybrid" tire. I have 33,000 miles on them and they are 9/32. I'll take it.

I have Pirelli AS Plus 3, 275/60/20
