Test drive Seattle area

[Solonor2011]

Hi all,
I recently rented a R1S from turo for a day for a test drive. The car was a quad motor on 20 inch tires. I didn't like the feel of the drive. I felt it was very bouncy/floaty. I'm looking to test drive one (preferably dual motor) on 21" all-road tires to see the difference in ride quality. Does anyone know if there is a way to get access to that configuration for a couple of hours?

I loved everything else about the car!

Glad you like the R1S. Did you play around with the drive modes (conserve, all-purpose,and sport) or adjust the ride height, at all? Those all make a difference in the driving experience.

I did try different modes. It did help a bit but I still felt too much floatiness. I also was very busy playing with everything else ?

ride quality isnt going to change that much between 20s and 21s. might be a little less road noise but otherwise will be about the same. especially the bouncy/floaty -ness you experienced.

Did you put it in Stiff?

You need to go to Vancouver or Portland to test drive. Washington State RCW says no go to Rivian.
