Rivian just unleashed a beast. Forget sensible – the all-new, quad-motor Gen 2 R1 isn’t about what youneed, it’s about what youcrave. Think rock-crawling monster meets silent assassin. Revealed Tuesday, this electric marvel pushes the limits of both performance and price. Want to tame the trails in the R1T truck? Prepare to shell out $115,990. Prefer the R1S SUV? That’ll be $121,990 to join the electric revolution’s extreme fringe. This isn’t just an EV; it’s a statement – a rugged, high-voltage flex.
Unleash the beast. The Gen 2 Quad doesn’t just boast power, it commands it. Imagine: 1,025 horses stampeding under your control, a monstrous 1,198 lb-ft of torque ready to obliterate the pavement. This isn’t just acceleration; it’s a warp-speed jump to 60mph in a mere 2.5 seconds. Blink, and you’ll miss the quarter mile marker as you devour it in a blistering 10.5 seconds.

Imagine hitting the open road, knowing your EV can cruise for a staggering 374 miles on a single charge. That’s the reality with the latest electric vehicles, and Rivian sweetens the deal. Flip into Conserve mode, and suddenly you’re flirting with a 400-mile range. Range anxiety? Consider it a relic of the past. And when it’s time to juice up, the standard NACS port unlocks the vast Tesla Supercharger network, making charging a breeze. As if that wasn’t enough, the R1 Quad series throws in a CCS DC adapter, because more charging options are always a win.
Imagine carving donuts in the dirt with ease. Rivian’s Kick Turn isn’t just a feature; it’s a playground on wheels. Scheduled to drop this September via over-the-air update, Kick Turn lets your R1 pirouette on command. Forget three-point turns on treacherous trails. This tech smartly manipulates power, allowing your Rivian to spin gracefully around its axis, leaving competitors eating your dust (or gravel). Finally, a reason towantto get stuck.
Unleash the beast within your Rivian with the all-new RAD Tuner! Ditch the mundane and dive into a world of personalized performance, tweaking your ride’s characteristics with intuitive sliders. Feeling competitive? Tap into victory with pre-loaded presets inspired by Rivian’s own triumphs: conquer the dunes with Desert Rally mode, forged in the fires of the 2023 Rebelle Rally, or dominate any incline with Hill Climb mode, a direct result of the 2024 Pikes Peak challenge. Your Rivian, your rules.

Slide into the EV, and you’re immediately enveloped in luxury. Think supple, quilted leather seats beckoning you to sink in. Then, your eyes trace the meticulous stitching that dances across the surfaces, a testament to handcrafted detail. But the real showstopper? A deep bronze finish, like aged cognac, graces the dash, doors, and even the speaker grilles, whispering of refined taste. It’s not just an interior; it’s an experience.
Rivian’s not just about conquering mountains; it’s about conquering your everyday. Gear up for early 2026, when the R2 arrives a Rivian designed for real life, with a price tag that starts at a refreshing $45,000.
