Since the Premium trim comes standard with 20" all season tires, I don't understand why the Performance trim's option for the 20" wheels wouldn't include an option for the all season tire in addition to the option for the all-terrain tire.
The videos are good, but nothing can replace seeing them in person.
I'm in the camp of wishing they had options for Rivian Blue, Red Canyon or even El Cap Granite. And of course, Storm Blue! I might take any of these colors over the actual available options.
That's funny, because my take away was that he was actually very impressed with the iX3. He had some minor gripes about it, and didn't love the exterior design, but overall gave it a really positive review.
The interesting bit in his review was about the efficiency. His efficiency was quite bad...
This will always be a problem no matter when or which model you buy. There will always be another generation, another advancement, another something, that will leave people jealous or wanting to upgrade to the latest model.
My initial thought after seeing this announcement was that the R2 will seem less cool if there are suddenly thousands of them being operated as robotaxis in my city.
I can only base it on the listed prices on the BMW UK site, along with configuring it to my liking with options and pricing. I can also only assume, as has been stated by several people previously, that pricing in the US is roughly equivalent to the listed prices in the UK.
From the BMW UK...
Probably not the case as I was a day one, minute one reservation holder, and I did go straight into my account and confirm I was definitely interested in the LE R2.
This will be a massive upgrade for Audi and one that is sorely needed. My wife's Q4 e-tron is a pile of hot garbage when it comes to infotainment/software. It's a 2023 model, so there may have been improvements in the last three years, but man I hate that vehicle. Can't wait to replace it with...
Is this for your normal every day driving? Or are you doing a lot of towing at freeway speeds in the mountains during winter?
This is completely at odds with the other guy's experience. I know people have different driving styles, city vs highway mixes, and climates, but damn... There are some...
This is the info I was looking for. I like the look of the 20” rims for the AT option on the performance trim and it’s the preferred size for me, but don’t want to lose the range with AT tires. I was hoping the AS tires on the 20” AT rims would still produce the 330 mile range.
I don't doubt or discount your experiences as R1 owners. However, I don't think it's fair to equate the R2 launch with the R1 launch for a myriad of reasons.
All I'm saying is, the conversion rate is not likely to be all that high. Of the 100-200k reservations that Rivian took in from the...
Couldn't agree more. I've had my Mach e for about 4 years here in Las Vegas, and I have been pleasantly surprised by the lack of a need for additional tint or a sunshade on the roof glass.
If the R2 has similar protection on the roof glass, that would be great!
Here's another unsubstantiated AI generated answer that completely goes against a large conversion rate expectation.
My guess would be a conversion rate of 15-25% of the reservation holders. However, that also doesn't equate to all of those conversions being interested in the LE. As many have...
Wow… if your only options are esker silver or Launch green for the LE, that’s a bit of a letdown. And no white interior option at launch? I’m fine with the black interior and launch green on the LE, but also lame that the paint is a paid upgrade
That's not how I interpret what's included. To me, it means Launch Green is a free paint color option to go along with Esker Silver, but all other colors would be extra.
Adaptive cruise control has always been more than enough for me on road trips.
I think it’s great that Rivian and other manufacturers are working on this autonomous technology, and I can see the value in it for others, it’s just not something I’m interested in.
I hope most of you want to wait for the LiDAR version and pass on the LE. I couldn’t care less about UHF, ADAS, FSD, etc., and I want the LE R2 as soon as possible!
