100% - not sure what this obsession of 0-60 is? The e-tron is plenty fast and I have no issues passing cars if needed. The zip is there. Anyone wanting superfast speeds is probably not looking at EVs anyway.
Orange County, CA with an R1S LE El Cap/BM and initial deposit placed December 4, 2018. As I have stated elsewhere, I will be bummed and possibly very pissed if I start hearing about R1S deliveries in OC to non-Rivian workers before me. My window is Oct-Dec and I still don't understand why...
I still am looking forward to the Rivian - I just needed to get this done sooner than an Oct.-Dec. window that might slip again. I guess my concern is that I had everything wrapped up in April for a May delivery that never happened.
My only quibble with the e-tron is that it does not have a...
So I could not wait any longer, so I sold my Tahoe and got a 2022 Audi e-tron Quattro earlier this week. After 3 1/2 years I don't really need a third row seat. So far, driving the e-tron is a blast and I love the fact that it has a great combination of on-screen control with traditional...
Decided not to wait any longer. Swapped the Tahoe for an Audi e-tron Quattro. After 3 1/2 years and counting, I don't need a third-row anymore. Checked out a few EVs (including Taycan Cross Turismo) and several hybrids before purchase.
Will keep my deposit, but could not wait any longer on Rivian non-delivery. Pulled the trigger on a 2022 Audi e-tron Quattro after checking out several other EVs (incl Taycan Cross Turismo) and hybrids. 3 1/2 years after my initial deposit I don't really need a third-row anymore, but will...
Yes backseat is essentially non-existent - even the sales guy said "its a 2-seater with a large trunk." The front seats were fine - pretty comfortable. They were definitely lower down. Even with the suspension in its highest position, you sit low to the ground. The R1S front seats were as...
It is helpful to see when you all put down your R1S deposits. And I see a few, like me, who put down deposits in Nov. or Dec. 2018. I did confirm with my Guide, CS and most recently at the Venice event, that my configuration of El Cap Granite/BM is the right combo for early delivery. That...
BTW I did stop by the Porsche dealer on my way home to take a look at the Taycan Cross Turismo. Cool car but too low to the ground and the cabin interior is quite cramped. I've decided to scratch this alternative off the list. The MSRP on that car was $125K but the dealer says if you want...
Had a May '22 delivery date and then pushed to Oct-Dec.
No contact with my Guide since June. She apologized for communication issues but had no further information. Same with customer service. Both basically said no new information on windows as of June.
Last week I attended the R1S preview...
No email today and based on my call with the CS there is no email update coming. The June 11 email was the update. If you have a new window later this year or next, then consider yourself notified.

Spoke with CS today as I could not reach my Guide. Here is what I was told:
1) if you received an email update with a window further out in 2022 or 23, then that is the only update available at this time.
2) Rivian only began building R1S's for early deposit holders (2018/19) in May. Production...
