It’s also because the doors are very light. The car is so heavy, Rivian seemed to try and save weight on the doors, so they don’t have as much momentum when closing. That plus the air pressure effect can make closing the last door a chore, especially for guests who’ve never been in the vehicle...

InsideEVs got 460 miles of range out of the Silverado, whereas Rivians always fall well short of their range estimates. This article noted an elevation drop while driving, but even when I've been going down in overall elevation in the R1S over long distances (and driving normally) the R1S still...

If they drop a 1000hp R1S and improve the ride (and fix the AC noise), I'll be first in line to upgrade. I won't get my hopes up, though.

Gotta laugh at what some people think is "illegal" and worthy of police intervention. If I was a cop and I had to show up for something so petty - even IF the Rivian owner really wasn't supposed to be there - I'd be up the caller's ass looking for any reason I can think of to tag them with a...

Just sowing discord in an already silly thread

I got mine yesterday.

This exactly. Had it won, it would have won. Prove me wrong.

I'd also add that it's smart they made this move before the R2 announce. I expect that reveal will become the dominant Rivian news beat, partially drowning out the layoff news. And there are few things investors like more than cost cutting.

Product is king. The product is fantastic, they'll find a way to survive - on their own, or with help (whether they want it or not).
