  1. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    I'm not much of a style guy or car guy. Heck I wish Rivian offered 18 inch wheels, or at least the 19s on all trims. But I do love boxy no frills look.
  2. Winter Tires on the 20" Wheels

    C'mon Rivian, offer the 19s on all models, unless there is a specific engineering reason not to.
  3. 20in wheel worse range even with all season tires?

    Standard AWD LR gets 330 miles on 19s. Anyone know why 19s are not an option on higher trim levels?
  4. Next R2 Software Update (2026.24) is Big! Garage Door Opener, Pet Comfort Mode, Gear Guard, Launch Mode, WiFi Hotspot & More

    Both cards are in wallet for myself and others in my household. I don't plan on loaning out my cars to folks that are inclined to being pulled over! :)
  5. Next R2 Software Update (2026.24) is Big! Garage Door Opener, Pet Comfort Mode, Gear Guard, Launch Mode, WiFi Hotspot & More

    People keep that in their car? I have it in my wallet. Wallet does not stay in car.
  6. Next R2 Software Update (2026.24) is Big! Garage Door Opener, Pet Comfort Mode, Gear Guard, Launch Mode, WiFi Hotspot & More

    Because a new car that touts its technology should not require a clip on remote. My 2005 Infiniti has a still working homelink button on the rearview mirror. And not to mention someone could break into your car and steal your remote. Then simply follow you home to figure out where you live.
  7. First 24 Hours with R2 - impressions, positives, nits

    Were you able to program liftgate height? Also was it easy to setup a garage door opener?
  8. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    Wife and I did a test drive today Saturday 11 JUL 2026 in downtown Atlanta. Temps were around 90 degrees. Our guide was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and the check in process was quick and easy. HVAC: We were both quite surprised at how cool the car's interior felt. The Atlanta sun...
  9. Would you go with 20" wheels or 21" wheels on Launch Edition R2?

    Are you not concerned with damaging tires over rough surfaces. And not off road, but highway expansion joints, crumpling asphalt, uneven concrete, etc. Seems like the thin amount of rubber between wheel edge and roadway would be a liability on any car, and even more so on one that is...
  10. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    Hey if parking vehicles in home garages become obsolete then sure, delete the garage door opener.
  11. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    So about $60,000 for a car that does not have a feature used daily that a 21 year old car has....
  12. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    My 2005 G35 has a home link button on rearview mirror. So does 2014 Subaru. Who wants a remote junking up the interior?
  13. Cancelling my Pre-order, thoughts inside from test drive

    This could be a deal breaker for me. Larger, heavier, less efficient wheels, with more expensive tires to replace? NO THANK YOU.
  14. Would you go with 20" wheels or 21" wheels on Launch Edition R2?

    Are the brakes different between the Base, Premium, and Performance?
  15. Would you go with 20" wheels or 21" wheels on Launch Edition R2?

    Following this logic, would the 19s provide an even more comfortable ride, and potentially more range? I do wish Rivian offered 19s in all three versions. Signed, A Guy That Despises Comically Oversized Wheels.
  16. Rivian Connect+ pricing = $14.99 monthly / $149.99 annually

    So now in my 2005 G35 I can use my (self installed) bluetooth to play music from my phone. With no cell signal, I can still play music that is stored on my memory card. But in a 2026 Rivian R2 I can only play music with a subscription? Or can I still use bluetooth to play through the car...
  17. R2 non-powered frunk is a mistake?

    We pull in front first to garage and have a bike rack on back of car. A frunk would be used extensively in our home.
  18. R2 as our only car

    We share a 2014 Subaru Outback 3.6R. If we were to get an R2, we'd likely keep the Outback for a few weeks then eventually sell it or give it to our 22 year old (and sell her 2005 G35). We've shared the car for nearly 6 years, thought remote working and a few Ebikes certainly have helped.
  19. R2 Wheels Options, Tire Sizes, Width, Offset - Hub Bore Size - 19" and 20"

    Same brakes on base, premium, and performance, right? If yes, then why not offer 19s on all levels?
  20. R2 Wheels Options, Tire Sizes, Width, Offset - Hub Bore Size - 19" and 20"

    What is this odd fascination with comically oversized wheels? I do wish I could get the standard 19s, or even something smaller, paired with the Premium model. What is gained from a larger, heavier wheel, and less rubber between wheel edge and road? Is there an engineering advantage, improved...
