That’s a hallucination for sure. It might have picked up on the April Fools thread. RJ said late 2028 at the earliest.

Shit, I wasn’t supposed to tell anyone. Now it’s going to cause a divergence in our timeline. Oh well, as long as I’m in the timeline where I get an R2. 😜

If it’s availability you’re looking for, the R1T and R1S are ready to go. If it’s affordability you’re looking for, you’ll have to wait for the R2 and its variants. When did you put your reservation down? I was holding out for an R3X/R3, but I ended up putting a reservation down on an R2 in...

Rivian emailed this to me almost an hour ago. We’re getting closer! I really want to plan a trip to Chicago this Summer and one of the highlights would be doing an R2 Demo Drive. Has anyone else heard anything?

RJ has already hinted at an R2X. That’s what the R2 tri-motor will be. I think it will be $10K-$15K above the Performance trim, just like I think the R3X will be $10K-$15K above the R3. As for range I feel like it’s got to hit 300. Back in 2024 they said 300+, so I don’t think any R2 should be...

Do you think it will be easy to get in there? The base of the rear seats in the R2 don’t flip open like they do on the R1T, do they?

Same here. I’m not sure who thought being blinded and burned through roof glass was a great idea. Even with all of the UV protection it’s still too bright and heats up the cabin. A roof sunshade is a must.

Absolutely. They already dealt with a pricing debacle in the past with the R1 when they tried to raise the price on reservation holders. They’re not going to go there again.

Tell that to Tesla who’s being investigated by the NHTSA. https://www.autoblog.com/news/at-least-15-people-have-died-in-tesla-crashes-due-to-faulty-electric-doors

I also want an R3X, but am considering an R2. I put a deposit down in November of 2025 and my Tesla Model 3 lease isn’t up until the end of 2027. I’m not sure where that leaves me. I don’t want to pay much more than my Model 3 lease, so I might be leaning toward the R2 Standard trim. Do you...

So you can either get a dark gray interior or wait until the end of the year and get a light gray interior? Man, I wish they had warm brown or tan as an alternative, or just a warmer wood trim. Maybe in the tri-motor? I can’t afford that though. 😢

So there’s no wood trim in the lowest-end interior. What part of it is white? I guess there’s no Standard trim on display yet.

You’re right! Teal is brighter with more green in it. Cerulean it is!

That’s interesting. I hope there’s a growing market for 21”s.

I drove a Honda Fit for 16 years and it was always hard to find tires for it. They were quite small. Maybe 15-16”? If other vehicles start becoming equipped with 21” wheels then maybe.

Catalina Cove looks like dark teal to me. I’d have to see it in person.

Damn, you bet me to it. I wish Ohio was on this list.

I think there’s some loophole in receiving free charging equipment if you live in select states. I saw it on Travis Ketchum’s YouTube channel. Ohio wasn’t one of the states, of course.

I’ve seen people attach brightly colored braided cords to the loop and hang it out of the opening. Manufacturers need to resolve this ASAP.

I understand THAT, but it’s a safety issue. Is saving a few bucks on a hinge mechanism worth all of the lawsuits and damage to your reputation? Did they learn nothing from Tesla or the Chinese, who are now opposed to these types of door handles? In an accident people are going to be panicking...
