R3X Reveal Shocks Even More!!! ?

Honestly, I don’t know how to get any work done today.

I'm in the same boat. I've got SO much work I actually have to get done today, and it's just not getting done.

here's my initial overview of all of them but I gotta say the R3X was my fave!

Thanks for the close ups of the R3X. I am totally in love with that thing!

Completely random observation, but the tires on each of the 3 vehicles came from different manufacturers. I noticed Goodyears on the R2, Pirelli on the R3 and Continentals on the R3X.

I think that was clearest on either the Top Gear or MKBHD videos.

1978 Horizon and Omni. Was the design team thinking retro ? I vote "dud".

I think synthetic car sounds are ridiculous but this one's gonna need selectable classic rally car engine/exhaust sounds

Nope. They were thinking Lancia Delta Integrale

the R2 is a great vehicle and for those who dont need a 3rd row it appears to be a better one than the R1S. i think basically 95% of R1S owners arent going to need or even use the offroad capability of the R1S, so the R2 is better in that sense. sorry to those who bought the R1S - should have waited.

the R3 and R3x is sweet. if it comes in at $40k, its going to be insane.

And wait another 2 years?

Never saw myself as a hot-hatch person, but the more I see it the more I'm really liking it! Hopefully it'll have a lower entry-level price so I'm not as nervous about off-roading and scratches as I am with the R1T.

I wonder how these dials are going to feel, and how smooth they're going to rotate inside of the wheel? I'm hoping for a really nice tactile click on every turn.

I would expect the tri motor to be around $65k for the R2. R3 is cheaper but given that the R3X has special suspension and seats etc I can see that costing abit more and be around the same price as a R2 tri. So bet on $65k especially in 2027 or 2028 money.

I just keep thinking about something that's much lower with the same hydraulic roll control as the R1 and 1000hp and how that's just going to rip people's faces off.

I need a R3X in bright orange with white accents and double racing stripes and I need it right meow.

R3 and X must have the rear spoiler. It just completes the look.

As soon as I saw this, after the initial shock of the R3 set in, I had to figure out how to convince the wife that we really need a Tri-Motor R3X, instead of the R3.
Rivian really nailed this design, my wife didn't like the R2, but asked me when the the R3 comes out.
Can't wait until they open up pre-orders for this.

"Gee honey, I can't believe Rivian sent us an R3X, when you wanted the R3!" ;-)

...and I thought the one more thing was going to be CarPlay /s
