The recent announcement of the 7-city R2 ‘reveal’ mentioned a possible R3 Cameo Guest Appearance.
If anyone attends any of the reveals before Feb 11 please PM or post .

Zero. OEMs have steadily shun auto shows over the last 10+ years. Rivian’s own tours are more effective and cost far less than auto shows participation.

That is odd....looks like Rivian is already signed up?

The official announcement said the Chicago show will be one of 7 locations to out the R2., that’s a given.
That’s not of interest and would not get us to make the trip.
Question was whether the R3 will be in tow.

Ok
DET is a one-stop 500mi drive from here or 90 minutes via air.
Any real confirmation of that R3 being in the house?
Toronto same distance if need be.

This just in from Teslarati confirms the 3 will be available then closes with doubtless I’m missing something…..

“” All of the events are set to include the R2 and R3X except the LA Auto Show, which won’t include the R3X, and most of the tour is taking place at automotive shows.

“Get ready—our R2 Road Tour is coming to a town near you,” Rivian writes. “We’re cruising through cities across the country, bringing you an up close and personal look at the all-new R2. You can also meet the new Gen 2 R1S & R1T and take a demo drive. Keep an eye out for R3X making guest appearances along the way””

I swore they told me in chat the base R3 would also be there, but at least on the tour page they say R2 and R3X for both Detroit and Chicago auto shows.

please keep us posted - anyone with info before we make travel plans.
R3 is in the crosshairs hopefully materializing while we can still climb in.
Chicago, Detroit, or Toronto
