Excellent review and video Joe and Lori. So, during the first phase of R1S I did pre-order one but that was during the period they had issues with material, and they had to increase the price to compensate for material and labor I think. Rivian was very professional during that time. I recieved the personable letter from RJ sent out to all the pre-order customers explaining why the price increase and delays. Now I did cancel it due to several delays and not knowing when it will arrive. Additioanlly the price increase was also a concern even with $77K and my wife looking at me cross-eyed that bump from $77K was getting crazy. I had it priced at $77K at the time with a trim above the base I believe, but it increased to $87K. Anyway Rivian was very professional and they have improved from when they started. Well, I went with the Jeep Gladiator based on Joe's reviews and Lori's videography which I am extremely satisfied, but that R2 looks pretty sweet.
As a Quad R1T owner, I can tell you its the best car I've every owned. My previous toy was a Widebody Scatpack Charger. This is miles ahead of Dodge on style and performance.
I saw one in the parking lot the other day. Impressive fit and finish. And it is a big vehicle in person. A Rivian delivery Van comes down our street everyday and it should save Rivian if they can increase production as Amazon has ordered 100,000 of them.
While I never cared for the headlight/light bar design. I really like the general look and interior. I’m keeping an eye out for the R2 in a few years since the R1S is too big for my needs.
Not an electric car guy, but the rivian is definitely changing my mind on possibly owning one when my lease is up. It’s more palatable than Tesla for sure.
@@Matt.e_Black how would you say the sw experience is comparatively? Ive owned a model 3 for 5 years, looking to get a bigger vehicle for another car now and don't think the X or Y really offer what I'm looking for but I love the tesla sw eco system. also, I've heard the highway noise is loud on the rivians comparatively
Now THIS is a head to head!!! And, yes, I'll take the Rivian R1S all day over the Escalade. Joe, finally, some forward thinking vehicles. Must feel good to get out of those "legacy" vintage ICE dinosaurs.
Awesome vehicle but you can't charge $91k with recycled materials on this interior. That's a bit insulting. I'd like to have some manual buttons for the a/c and ventilation. However, I'd still consider this EV for purchase, it's a solid option.
Nice! I own several Rivians.😊 Rivian stock that is. I can't afford one. But I'll buy a few more shares since they were smart enough to get it on Raiti rides. I think Rivian will eventually be acquired. Anyway hope they are successful.
I'd love to see telematics displayed on screen while you're driving. Especially when you're in performance vehicles, it's tough to tell your speed, RPMs, etc. I think this would add significantly to your already great videos.
It seems to me, if you add the frosted sunroof and the upgraded sound system, for just a few extra bucks, you could get the tri-motor version with all of the extras standard. And, with the tri-motor, you'll get the upgraded interior.
@@cxcubed I get $98,500 for Max Pack performance with interior upgrades. He's reviewing the Performance Max dual motor. It does inflate pretty quickly once you start adding stuff. At first I talk myself into accepting the short range LFP truck, but then I want to be happy for the next few years with the top of the line stuff.
@@adjust.clinic Totally get it. I was thinking I needed at least the large pack as well, until doing some research and understanding the difference between the new LFP batteries on the standard pack vs the NMC batteries on the large and max. It's looking like you can charge to 100% a lot more often with LFP vs recommended 80% on NMC. Which means the mileage advantage for the large pack is diminished. It seems the way to go is either standard or max. I wish Rivian offered leasing in my state, which would make it much easier to swallow the price tag and get top of the line.
They're coming out with an R2 in the mid 40s. This one isn't meant for budget shoppers. It is a great value though compared to competitive ICE vehicles.
I intend for my next vehicle to be a BEV and am waiting for the next generation of solid state batteries to move into EV ownership. For the EV’s currently available, I like what I see from multiple auto companies. The one area I dislike is the use of touch controls for HVAC, Infotainment, seat movement, etc. Driver use of touch controls is dangerous as it almost always requires the driver to move their eyes from the road to the screen - this is dangerous and a significant safety issue. I want to see auto companies design controls using ONLY mechanical knobs, buttons, and switches. This feature will have a big impact on my purchase decision. I believe touch only controls should be made illegal in moving vehicles.
I looove my R1S. would GET THE GEN2 IN A HEART BEAT. NO Cadillac, WAY TOO EXPENSIVE AND DON'T OFFER MUCH. Rivian IS VERTICALLY INTEGRATED EV COMPANY FROM THE GET GO, UNLIKE LEGACY AUTOMAKERS THAT ARE TRYING TO CATCH UP.
This a is a very high quality vehicle, I'd rather have the Rivian than a Cadillac SUV. (I'm smirking at the tongue-in-cheek comments you throw in there)
In this economy, how are people actually affording these 70+ k vehicles. Don't get me wrong, love the look, the features and being electric and all but these prices for vehicles in general are just of of control.
It's interesting how some auto manufacturers have a talent for cheating the air, and others seem to have little to no talent in that area. Good picture of Oscar.
I wouldn't pit this against the Escalade IQ. It seems more in line with a Tesla Model X or something. The Escalade IQ outclasses them both by far, in my opinion (as expected given the price and size difference). This seems a bit closer to a Lyriq maybe. Just my $0.02.
Lyric is 5 seats so really not competing. The Kia EV9 upper trims, Tesla Model X, Volvo EX90, and gas competitors like Audi Q8 are the competitive set. The Cadillac IQ is huge and starts at $130K, with options up way above that. It's in another class really.
I hope the next generation revamped the suspension system because the suspension system on my 2023 R1S failed the very first day I got it. While proudly showing the car to my friends, a sudden puff of air erupted, and we watched in disbelief as the front of the vehicle dropped so low that the frame nearly touched the front wheels. Rivian towed the car, and it was repaired within a few days. However, a year and 21,000 miles later, the same issue happened again-this time while driving on the freeway. I had to pull over and fortunately live near a service center in Costa Mesa. The car was towed again, but with this problem recurring within a year, I strongly suspect a significant flaw in the suspension system. I’m relieved this didn’t occur during a mountain ski trip or a desert adventure, as Rivian markets the vehicle for. Now, I hesitate to drive the R1S far from home due to fear of another breakdown.

this crazy world we love in where every vehicle looks lile a toy and has screens everywhere. it's like i died and wasn't good enough to make heaven or bad enough to make hell so they sent me to this electric car world.
As far as full size, only the tundra, sequoia (standard), and f150 have hybrids. Everyone else is either gas or ev, but Ram could have a range extender coming to the market soon, and maybe the wagoneer/GW could get them too
Body cladding should never be painted, this completely defeats the purpose of the cladding - to take the hits from rocks, branches, etc. on the trail and road. Painting it means you'll have to deal with scratches and dings to paint, like the rest of the car, at which point why even bother having the cladding? Toyota does this with their EV, but Subaru refused this stupidity with the Solterra variant because they actually understand the purpose.
But if you need to drive to pittsburgh you will have to stop 2 times to charge over 5 hours delay. Still not for me as electric needs to add to the total mileage distance.
Cadillac IQ is big as a ESV and has better interior and exterior but it starts at 130k not worth it. I think the Rivin will be better with 2025 Cadillac Vistiq.
This is the most goofy looking vehicle I have ever seen. Look how the trailing edge of the hood aligns with the fender. Is this a representation of their quality? I would be embarrassed to be seen in this. Just not to be totally negative, performance and drivetrain engineering seems very well done.
