Interesting that they have the R2 as being only a three year lifespan for first gen. Since it is 2026 and presumably has 800v charging etc it should last longer compared to the R1 platform which dates back to pre 2018.

Take these things with a grain of salt. This is what the Rivian section looked like back in March.

How reliable is this? With technology changes so fast, I doubt R1 platform will last that long..

Depends on how Rivian handles upgrades. Tesla still has the Model S after 10 years and it's gone through a myriad of updates/upgrades, but it's all under the same Model S name.

Anything to understand what the R2 platform is going to look like? In the header, that does not appear to be either current R1T or R1S, but i can't make out what it actually looks like it will be. Interesting that there is separation between the front and back doors. Gull wing perhaps????

Or do the doors fold down? Passenger tunnel.

I am excited for the future of Rivian. I just feel odd knowing when my truck will be outdated already.

You mean when it will be a "classic"!

Maybe by then they'll start producing a longer bed WT version for fleet use. ??

I wonder if electric vehicles will ever really become classics. I would worry about long term storage of a vehicle with so much tech.

Curious about the RCV, first I have seen this mentioned with a June ‘23 start….

These are 100% an artist speculation and nothing that Rivian has released.

Rivian has not revealed any details for the R2 series.
