Rivian is definitely shaking things up in the electric SUV market with the introduction of their two new models, the R2 and the R3/R3X.
Here’s a breakdown of what we know so far:
- R2: This is a new mid-size five-seat SUV with a focus on both adventure and passenger comfort.
- R3 and R3X: These are also mid-size offerings, but with a crossover hatchback design.
- The R3X is a performance variant built for those who want extra excitement on and off-road.
The R2 and R3 can reach 0-60 mph in under 3 seconds with the quickest powertrain configuration. They will also offer over 300 miles of range on a single charge with the larger battery pack. While details are still emerging, Rivian promises intentional design that prioritizes passenger space and a comfortable driving experience.
The R2 is expected to be the first to hit the production line at Rivian’s Normal, Illinois factory.
More information on pricing, features, and exact release dates is likely to come from Rivian in the near future.
