I believe that the R2 Semi-Active Suspension falls under the Solenoid/Valve Actuated type of semi-active suspensions. "They consist of a solenoid valve which alters the flow of the hydraulic medium inside the shock absorber, therefore changing the damping characteristics of the suspension setup...

Just got back from my very short test drive here in Austin, they had me go to a nearby coffee shop and then turn around to come back - no highway driving and no good chances to really put it through its paces. I will say that the stance of the vehicle is very different from my Model Y and the...

Y'all have got me excited for my test drive in just over an hour :D

I have a test drive booked today, and the Rivian representative inquired if I was actively in the market for a vehicle and looking to convert my reservation to an order today - so we shall see if I am adding to this list or not later today :) What an exciting day after over two years of waiting!

It looks like the second person just made that their order date haha

I was having some of the same issues, seems like their site is not handling all of this traffic very well. My demo drive page showed up again after some time.

I was able to get one booked for today! I am so excited to get behind the wheel of an R2! I have to book another one when my husband can make it, but the location closer to our home did not have any demo drives available yet. **Edit - It seems like their website is on the struggle bus today...

I'd pay more to get the 503 VIN 👀

I am also a leasing noob and am more just worried about the quick pace of advancement in the EV industry as a whole. I have an announcement day R2 reservation, but I don't know if buying when there are major changes (800V Architecture, LiDAR & Autonomy Hardware, Battery Chemistry, etc.)...

Currently daily driving a Model Y LR and I am so excited about the prospect of owning an R2. The R1 (T and S) are both just too large of vehicles, so they were never even a consideration for me. My husband and I are DINKs, so I really don't need a third row of seating or that much cargo space. I...

For me the bigger thing I want to hold out for is the Gen 3 Autonomy Computer and Rivian Processors - this seems like a HUGE leap in processing power and I feel like buying a LE R2 with the Gen 2 Autonomy Computer in it will end up leaving me in the same boat many Gen 1 R1 purchasers have been...

@kurtlikevonnegut I will definitely be trying to attend any events that I can. Hopefully we can work on getting an official club put together if there is more activity. It looks like Lone Star is based out of Houston and North Texas is based out of DFW. Excited to be a future Rivian Owner - I...

I would love to see something like this come to R2 - even cooler if they have the optional accessories that are detailed in the patent.

Adding to the thread with the photos that I took while I was at the event on Friday. Amazing to see the R2 in person and it fully reinforced my decision to place a reservation. I can't wait to hear more about the vehicle as they get into production and start deliveries.

Posting photos I took on 3/15 of the R2 while it was in Austin, TX for the community event.

I can confirm after seeing the vehicle in person while it was in Austin, that it does not come with a spare tire - nor does the subfloor space in the cargo area have room to fit a compact spare. I don't think this is a deal breaker personally - I would rather have the space free and just pack a...

Hey there! Just joined the forums and this group as I put in a reservation for R2 moments after the reveal event was finished. I am very excited for the Austin Rivian Store to open later this year - hoping that the community in this area will get more active and organized because of that.

Just submitted my response. I got to see the R2 in person while it was here in Austin, so I am super excited to get more details as we get closer to production and deliveries!
