Overview

  • Gen-2 quad-motor R1T and R1S deliver 1,025 horsepower and 1,198 lb-ft of torque for 0-60 mph in 2.5 seconds, with EPA range up to 374 miles (400 miles in Conserve mode).
  • Pricing starts at $115,990 for the R1T and $121,990 for the R1S, with Launch Edition units arriving later this month.
  • Customers trading in any vehicle—including ICE and hybrid models—now receive a $1,500 bonus, down from $3,000, on new Rivian purchases through July.
  • Rivian reiterated its 2025 delivery guidance of 40,000–46,000 units after Q2 output fell during retooling for its 2026 model refresh.
  • All 2026 R1 models feature Tesla’s NACS port with a complimentary CCS adapter, and will gain the Kick Turn off-road maneuver via software update in September.
