I'm not in the market for an electric truck or SUV, but if I was it would be for a Rivian. They're the most handsome of the bunch and seem to be the most refined as well

[DampNoodles]

Im honestly really rooting for Rivian. They always seem to be going through a lot and the market for evs is changing. Idk what it is, but i just really like their products. I wish I could afford one haha.

[parkerfoxhoven]

That sequential warning light should be standard on every vehicle on the road. That’s genius. Was happy to see that when cops did it, glad to see it here too.

[RCRitterFPV]

Looking forward to that R3X... I think Rivian is on top the the EV game...
If I wanted a truck... this is what I'd get..

It’s insane the power they are getting out of these new motors. The duel motor performance has 665 HP and like 840 torque. That’s wild

[Story_Teller_Everyone]

40% more torque at 0 rpm is huge especially with the addition of locker. I would still love to see some sort of low gear built into system for crawling. I know there was some designs around that they were looking into adding.

Andre met his match..it’s the first time seeing Andrè holding tight for his life!!😅..txs for the videos xx

[JustinKingOffroad]

that R1S is something i would consider. looks great.

[kurtburkhardt]

Rivian does seem to get the EV market. I would go with the dual motor long distance battery. The 2 motor is fast enough. Would rather have more range. Getting one around 60k would be fairly reasonable. My concern is still range and charging infrastructure. Will probably get a 4Runner Trailhunter. Maybe in 5-10 years these will be more practical for long trips and towing. Hybrids or PHEV's seem to make more sense for now. EV's are getting better every year.

I sat in one at the showroom hoping to see the R2 in person but no luck. These vehicles are so nice, nicer interiors than the jeeps and though they used to look silly to me in photos, they are gorgeous in person. I’m rooting for the company, they do so many cool things other than building these vehicles. I didn’t want an EV for my family / towing vehicle and couldn’t afford the R1s anyway, but can’t wait for my R2 reservation in 2026 👍🏼

[pablotelford]

Thank you for all the details you provided in this video!!

[jake-ly]

Owning a R1S it feels like they fixed everything I had issues with; suspension noise, offroad torque being used properly (it never felt like 800hp offroad with wheels up), as well as the 12v issues. Its a bummer they shrunk the frunk and made the large pack smaller though

That trail is a nice easy place by level and to get to, Snow wheeling just a few months ago here is fun and you don't fear dropping off a 2k ft cliff like some other places in the PNW

[thedefinitive]

I'm not hugely interested in EVs but if I were to get one, I'd probably go with a Rivian. Particularly the R1S. Really nice updates. The thing that still keeps me away is the pricing, which is no shade to Rivian. EVs just cost more than I'd like to pay for what they are.

[rayamanelly]

It seems that put way more media focus on the truck than the suv. I have a family of 5 and like to get outdoors but need the practicality of an 8 seater.

[haanjamiis]

I like Rivian much more than the Cybertoilet. Especially the R1S. Too bad they are not available in EU. Yes, I know R2 is coming to EU but R2 is too small for my family. The big family 4x4 market is very undersaturated in EU .

[jasoncork]

I’ve been waiting for an LFP version, now as soon as it gets the Tesla charger socket I’m ordering one.

[roguedogx]

10:29 $70k isn't bad for that. still wouldn't call it a deal, but it's heading towards reasonable.

[jonrhoades]

Nice to see Andre in my backyard!!! Can you bring me a R1T please??

[John-flwv]

Would love to see a drag race against the cyber beast which does 2.6 on all terrain tires on street roads. Let's put both trucks on the same tires and head to head on the same sticky track before we make the fastest truck in the world claim. Rivian fan! Keep driving your cost down so you can survive to make the R2 and R3!!!
