  1. Rivian considering making own LiDAR sensors

    Makes me think Lidar in a (customer retail) R2 will not occur in 2026. Software for this item hasn't been or needs to be redone with new hardware? Too many questions. Not willing to purchase/order a Launch edition R2 only to find out mid-2027 it lacks hardware/software to do what has been...

  2. Rival: 2026 BMW iX3 reviews are impressive... R2 has its work cut out

    EPA range? Thanks to the 112kWh battery pack. Put that in the R2 and we have what "range"?

  3. How Many R2's Have Been Manufactured

    Someone on the R2 forum stated between 25 and 50 a day. I have no inside information on this number.

  4. Purchase a new R2, does it come with a discount for charging at the Rivian Charging Network?

    My experience as a non-Tesla owner-52 cents per kWh at Tesla station. The EVGO/EA stations are 52-56 cents per kWh. Membership can lower the kWh cost but still more than what Tesla owners pay at Superchargers-36-38 cents per kWh via Plugshare. My personal data is from Pennsylvania, Ohio...

  5. Purchase a new R2, does it come with a discount for charging at the Rivian Charging Network?

    Tesla often has "limited time deals for new Tesla purchases with free Supercharging for three months or 2000 miles. Does Rivian do the same? If not do Rivian owners pay the same rate (50 cents+ per kWh) as non-Rivian owners? Have had flawless session with using Rivian DCFC stalls with my...

  6. Rival news: Ford Midsize EV Pickup (Ranchero) - News & Info

    One photo of a few individuals doesn't define the larger sphere.

  7. R2 customer production started today! R2 configurator / ordering starts June

    800 a month. About 1700 after two months filling employee tequests.

  8. R2 Highway Range at 70MPH = ~250 Miles (Modeled)

    Interesting "report". Now we need real world data to compare. Another two months?

  9. Are you a Tesla owner getting the R2 as first Rivian? ⛔️ [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS / NO ELON DISCUSSIONS] ⛔️

    Giga Texas is producing the Cybercab. The Y is also produced at Freemont. Cybertruck is only produced in Texas. Will Tesla cancel the Cybertruck due to lousy sales?

  10. How many R1 owners are moving to R2?

    That is not what multiple media sources are stating.

  11. 2027 Rivian R2 EPA Certification w/ specs (range, battery capacity, charging rate, efficiency etc.)

    You had many vehicles and what is left to try?

  12. Met a Production R2 (VIN #5) in the wild!

    Wish the employee R2 owners could do a big monthly post on the vehicle as a PR push. Much to learn aboutvin the real world results.

  13. 2027 Rivian R2 EPA Certification w/ specs (range, battery capacity, charging rate, efficiency etc.)

    True but...as stated before......some areas of the country experience true winter conditions where range decreases 40%, dcfc is slower due to a colder hvb and dcfc charging rollout is significantly lagging. Northwestern portion of Wisconsin has this issue.

  14. 2027 Rivian R2 EPA Certification w/ specs (range, battery capacity, charging rate, efficiency etc.)

    Interesting but real world highway figures are going to be less.

  15. R2 Survey From Rivian -- We'd love to learn more about your interests, purchase intentions and expectations. Did you receive one too?

    Were there any questions about Service Centers? As in the need to increase the number of locations and ease of scheduling?
