These will be siblings under the skin...akin to the Taycan/Etron GT. As with all vehicles, design is subjective.

Agreed, the current system (especially western world) is extremely short sighted....but it's the one we live in and when played well, is rewarded by the market. There's no doubt in my mind the future of light duty vehicles is electrified, the writing is on the wall. ICE's will be around for a...

The Audi sibling of the 718 is soon coming to market as well, Concept C. It's gorgeous IMO!

Got to keep the shareholders happy and the cash machine running! Not saying this is a bad thing, just a reality of business. https://insideevs.com/news/776826/ford-f-150-lightning-production-pause-gas-hybrid-profitable/

Happy to hear you're back on the road, but man, this incident would certainly take the wind out of my sails. Hopefully never happens again.

Sorry man...this sucks. Part of the process with software defined vehicles nowadays, I'm sure it will get sorted out. Did you let Rivian know?

Sorry, this has been posted already. Administrator....please delete.

Correct, they stated drop approx. 25 lbs. removing the battery and top mount if you need to lift it. There's no getting around these are heavy, that's par for the course with this class of bike. The cargo rack is rated to carry 75 lbs.

Yeah, the current administration didn't end up rescinding the NEVI funds...thank goodness! https://www.electrive.com/2025/08/12/us-white-house-releases-frozen-billions-in-funding-for-charging-infrastructure/

That's a great idea, I'm sure it's something they could add with an update if it's not in the software already!

Every part is serial number coded, so the instant it goes on another bike it will be flagged by the software, except the basic stuff like the wheels, drive belt etcetera... And you can track the jerks down with GPS!

"The security features are compelling. It is essentially immobilized when parked, so you would have to throw (heave 80lb) into a truck, which would instantly alert the owner and you can track it by GPS. So not a useful thing to steal - though I'm sure it will happen from time to time." And...

Few ICE vehicles get 500 miles of real world range, who drives 500 miles at once when road tripping? I believe most would be very happy with 300 miles of range (in the dead of winter) and a 10-15 minute charge time when DCFC. The Chinese are there already BTW.

It's suitable for growth and the market is showing that, but not at the breakneck pace they originally projected.

The mid-size EV SUV market is looking good for us buyers! Rivian knows they need to bring their A game, can't wait!

How much does $7500 make a difference on a lease payment when at the R1 price points? Not saying it doesn't affect sales but just curious.

Here's another video with lots of info. https://insideevs.com/news/776646/rivian-also-electric-bike-tm-b/

Yes, I would of thought being the last quarter for the Fed Tax credit and the lease loophole, they would have sold more...especially compared to other EV Pickups. I get it that EV pickups are not sales leaders & R1T isn't a direct comparison to the Lightening or GM's products...but they're not...

Another simple way to test polarity is with a 9v battery.
