The availability timelines including the $45k version only being available late 2027 were communicated back on March 12. The following has been on their website since ... "An additional R2 Standard variant will arrive in late 2027 starting around $45,000, offering 275+ miles of estimated...

... and here's the screen cap with text at the bottom from the Accessories pop up

Reasonable observation, the range and fast charge is very alluring, but ironically I would want that for extended distance off-road use, so I also want good ground clearance/approach/departure angles. The BMW/Volvo alternatives would be a more risky proposition for ground clearance. It seems I...

Thanks for your OP. I went to Palo Alto today and also thought the Launch Green a bit muted. My preferences currently are Catalina Cove > Forest Green > White but Half Moon Bay wasn't there so maybe that inserts itself somewhere in the order after I see it.

Human psychology is a funny thing. Rivian could have launched all the vehicles with base prices at $1000 more than they did. People probably wouldn't have objected and still considered entry pricing competitive, except some would doubtless object about the entry point now being $46k instead of...

The same text is also in the configurator so it seems to be a thing. In my case as a first time EV owner it will be a nice inclusion since I'd otherwise need to buy them.

Ditto, although I haven't attempted to RSVP again. Originally the event started at 11am but I see its now 9am, so I'll just head over early Friday, in a probably vain attempt to beat the crowds. Not that getting an early look really matters for me, since I haven't owned a Rivian and only have a...

Unexpected service center challenges ... Halt, who goes there? Stand and deliver! Your money or your life! Speak friend and enter! What is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow? I definitely wouldn't expect those ... and of course I'd never expect the Spanish Inquisition :D Sorry...

Well USMCA comes up for re-negotiation this July so who knows what that may mean for tariffs with Mexico 🤷‍♂️ The potential for turmoil in US-EU tariffs is one of the reasons why I though Rivian might have been positioning for exports to the UK instead of the EU, when Rivian had three UK media...

Sure, if people are either delaying purchase to 2027, or have no choice because they are too far down the reservation list, then additional choices become available. BMW will have its iX3 40 and Rivian will have its Premium and Standard models for example. I was just pointing out the realities...

That ~20k seems a bit optimistic, but good luck to you if the BMW is on your shopping list. If we assume Debrecen ramps to 3 shifts to run at maximum production rate for September, October and November then that would be 37.5k total cars, primarily produced for EU, UK and US, based on the annual...

So how many BMW iX3 50, Volvo EX60 and Mercedes Benz GLC EV are going to make it into the US in 2026? It seems many are assuming that if R2 doesn't pan out for them for any reason, then they can go and buy one of the competition. All these vehicles, including R2, are likely to see far higher...

Yes, but if it isn't spelt out, probably multiple times, then people will still continue to think in silos and not connect the dots to understand the reality of R2 availability through 2026. I see the lack of understanding in multiple posts every day on this site. I suspect a lot of people are...

Thank you for your apology ;)

Not sure why people are so impatient for configuration data. If you don't have a day one reservation at minimum and if you haven't owned a Rivian previously, then you're already likely to be well down the priority list in relation to the number of units available to purchase. Plenty of time to...

That compares the R2 to the R1S, not the R2 2026 production to the R2 arriving later with RAP1 and LIDAR. No reason why the 2026 R2 would be fitted with different camera sensors to the later version.

What is your source for the RAP1 equipped R2 having a change in camera resolution? I haven't seen any mention of this, just the addition or the LIDAR sensor and RAP1 processor. You're painting with too broad of a brush here. Those commenting on colors are clearly a small number in the context...

The BFG website for the T-T T/A states "The BFGoodrich Trail-Terrain T/A tire is severe snow rated with a three-peak mountain snowflake symbol.[2]", but the superscript states "[2] Excludes Original Equipment tires." You'll find the first statement under "Key benefits forTrail-Terrain T/A tire"...

Additionally, the rear door windows are different. R1S has a vertical bar, splitting the window, R2 does not.

Never let it be said cynicism and skepticism aren't alive and well on the Rivian forums :D Surely the clue to why Level 3 autonomy can be delivered is in what is not said in these statements, i.e. that when the system determines it is unsafe to operate it will either fall back to Level 2 and...
