  1. R2 TRI-MOTOR

    I don't disagree with anything here. However, the R2 has to sell in the neighborhood of 50% historic Model Y volume to be a success for Rivian, hence near Model Y pricing. If Rivian gets caught on the wrong side of the price/demand curve R2 becomes an existential crisis for the company. Rivian...
  2. R2 TRI-MOTOR

    Looking at the price differences between R1 powertrain/battery configs once normalized for other features each step up in battery or motor config is right around $5000. Based on this my pricing estimate is: RWD std: $45000 RWD large: $50000 Dual AWD std: $50000 Dual AWD large: $55000 Tri AWD...

  5. When will R2 ordering begin?

    Well, I WANT them to release all the info yesterday. ;) Realistically, however, whatever they can. If the bill of materials is really at 95% then I would guess there is something they can talk about with high confidence of not having to walk it back later. My point is that they need to do...
  6. When will R2 ordering begin?

    I get why Rivian is being tight lipped on the pricing, options list, and release date: clearly there is still a lot to get sorted prior to going public with R2 details and they don't want to walk back something they put on the record. However, there has been a sea change in the EV space over the...
