R3 Reveal Shocks!!! ?

[TollKeeper]

I think it's whatever is going on right here that's messing with me on the looks:

I see this... and all I can think about is this..

Jeez! Lada Niva all the way...but in modern skin. ? The Adventure theme of Rivian continues to roll. It looks ready to attack whatever hills or obstacles you throw at it...very short overhangs indeed.

I like the R3 fine. It's sort of retro. I'm not sure I would go for it. One thing nobody has mentioned is the windows don't appear to have frames.

reminds me of a bigger version of a VW Rabbit.

Will be interesting to see the final specs - should be super fast and efficient.

Edit: looks like somebody else thought it looks like a Rabbit too .

Honestly I don't know if it's just me but the R3 and R3X headlights look really wonky, might be a product of the double-jointed back glass (what is is called?)

Omg omg who saw that coming?!!

No kidding, how do you keep a secret like that in todays world?

And wait, there's more, R3X

I love that color

I hope it looks better in person ?

I concur. Not the best looking car I've ever seen. Reminds me of 80's hatchbacks with wheels that are 3 sizes too big.

Caught me off guard! Does this mean my R2 reservation will give me the option of getting an R3 in 2026?

I reserved the R2, but now I would be more interested in the R3X. Looks like a ralley Rabbit! Curious if we can change over reservation as well.

Bike rack up close. Looks like a custom way of mounting.

Looks at the gauge cluster with a front camera overlaid with gauges.

I have a concern about the rear light. Did the feds remove the requirement for a rear facing red light to remain on a fixed, non-movable portion of the body? Or did I miss Rivian doing something clever when the hatch opens?
