0:26 Thank you for mentioning price-point. In my opinion, every version of the R1T doesn't need to have tech to the moon. Make a stripped down "work truck" version and price it in the same ballpark as ICE trucks. I'd be first in line. But do it before Ford figures out they can put the Mach-E drivetrain under the Maverick.

I love showing people the interior with sleek lines and real wood trim. They love it. Then, I put it in sport mode and punch it. That's when they start to really love it.

I am very proud to be on this journey with my R1T.

Guys, you’re building and astonishing product but you’re also keeping the outlook for your strategy and mission for decades ahead. This is how it’s done. Small steps that generate constant growth and improvement, so your vehicles become more that a mere sum of their parts. Keep it up!

The framing of these shots is beautiful.

We need more companies like this

Come on, come on, come on, Rivian strength and Rivian DNA, we are waiting for you in Europe with the desire to be able to enjoy driving a Rivian, we need quality cars. like what you are doing🇪🇦❤

Really looking forward to R3 in particular. The design appeals to me and is the sort of thing I'd want as a replacement for my diesel Cruze.

I want a R2 in The Netherlands. Such a nice car! Congratulations with the investment from Volkswagen!

I really do hope they succeed for a long time. I like their philosophy and take on an EV. Hopefully the Rivian is accessible in Asia, planning to get an R2 before 2028.

I hope you guys stay around for a long time.

Hi Rivian, I have the R2 on my radar for the future but please focus on range and not so much on performance. SUVs are family cars for road trips, not race tracks. Thanks.

You could also reduce cost of energy by installing solar canopies to the external storage including the WOW yards, if you have them, and carparking areas including those parts of the carpark that are used for circulation. Usually carpark solar canopy systems only cover the airspace directly above the parking spaces but this means only ⅔ of potential ☀️ power generation capacity is utilised, leaving the final ⅓ wasted. WOW yards (Warehouse On Wheels) have HUGE solar power generation capacity potential, especially where companies are looking to transition their fleets to EV. Outdoor spaces, when either empty or not at full capacity, still attract the same costs [maintenance, property taxes, security, lighting, insurance] as when fully utilised. Therefore, making those spaces work harder in their three dimensional capacity rather than just the two dimensional, is simply logical and good business; also a great PR opportunity.

Rivian is easily multiples of times the company that Tesla is. The interior of Rivian vehicles is amazing, the fit and finish is fantastic, the lines where body panels meet on the exterior is perfect compared to many Tesla vehicles I’ve seen and driven. Additionally, you don’t hear about disgruntled employees at Rivian however, Tesla is a different story! Thank you, Rivian for being an exemplary company. Please continue making amazing products..

And rivian has all those issues and more just read the rivian forums and talk to a real rivian owner! Oh yeah and rivian has already burned more capital up to NOW than tesla raised in its entire existence. Forbes says rivian consumed over $20,000,000,000 since 2019. Ad in rivians debts vs cash left and they are near to worthless! Vs tesla has more in the bank today then they raised with almost no debts and of course operates 5x the factories, has over 5x the employees, operates the world's 2 most efficient automotive plants for 3+consecutive years! Tesla does 30x rivians sales and also makes home&commercial spec chargers, solar panels and solar tiles, software, motors, inverters, car home&grid scale batteries and they offer more model's to.

This should be about the product, not someone’s perception of CEO.

It might be too early build something with the quality features of the Nintendo Gameboy but I think it's something the industry needs to work towards especially for affordable cars.

Sounds all great, and I'm willing to buy: but there's no chance in Europe! Bring a Europe suitable R1T to here and I'll support the growth of the company (and most probably many other people)! :) Just don't do the same mistake as Tesla (and every other US car manufacturer): good service is very big in Europe! Don't mess that up!

This seems minor, but how do you address buyers that find connectivity through CarPlay and Android Auto a must-have? It seems like an option you should allow, whether you believe in it or not.

Rivian all the way. I'm so close to buying. But the price point is just too much esp considering I broke the bank on Tesla. RIVN is the natural complement. Want to hire me RIVN? hmu

I like the Rivian, but my issues are found in all EV brands. I want interface that isn’t dependent of a touch screen, or lack of cluster. Physical controls, handles on doors that are just that, no motorized pop in-out handles, a solid roof. Not quite a no frill cars, but also something meant for real life. I hope to one day being able to afford/justify an R3 but meanwhile I’ll stay with automakers that just make sense.

Why does Rivian have only one headlights style?

Bring R2 to Australia please

If these were a little more affordable, I'd buy one in a heartbeat. Rivians are the only EV's I'd ever buy as well.

Just need R2

Love my R1T. Had it for 1 1/2 years now. Unfortunately it had its first serious hiccup since I’ve owned it and it’s in the shop. I think the computer had a melt down. I know they will get it working again. But now I want the Gen2 R1T. This is a truck’s truck. I’ve got my reservation in for the R2 too. Can’t wait to see one in person.

Great product and features but please R3 R3 R3 R3 as soon as possible.

Apple should buy them

The biggest thing that would get me to buy a r1t is if it didn’t cost more than my house

Didn't really say anything. Have a look at recent Intel videos. They actually discuss the processes and tech details. Title implied you would as well.

If certain components can’t be worked on like I experienced when they had to replace my battery pack because a component went bad in my 22’ R1-T. When the warranty is expired is Rivian going to charge customers for a brand new battery pack because a component needs replaced and you can’t access it without tearing apart the battery pack? I love my truck but do I need to sell before the warranty is up?

hardware feedback - please change the design of the frunk to open like the Lightning (includes parts of the front of the nose) - the lift over is awkward and difficult to use

@hoopdyhop76

It’s designed that way because of the deeper water fording it allows. The rivian is made for off-roading and that dictates the design decision, the ford isn’t. While I agree with you that it would be nice to load the frunk in my R1 easier like the ford, I wouldn’t trade it for the decrease in water fording. If you want a more street biased vehicle by a lightning or an EV9(which has no real usable frunk)

@@hoopdyhop76 that's a fair point. I can see how a lower opening could jeopardize the water seal. the theoretical fording depth of the R1T is 43 in or about 3.5ft so a low front opening frunk might not work. However I believe that's it's not actually safe to drive through water that high in the first place as the car could float (even at 7k+ lbs) in about 3ft of water

Please add rear wheel steering 🔥🔥

Yes, but when are you going to make a RHD version, that people on average wages can afford? It's how Henry Ford got his start.
