Really wish Rivian would offer a 6 seat configuration with middle row captains chairs. I hate bench middle row seats and having to move them for people to access 3rd row.

From what I’ve seen, this is about the only complaint I have with R1S.

They‘ll probably do it eventually.

Can‘t put out all the good stuff in the first round ?

I am buying the R1S now, but when captain chairs are offered, I will upgrade.

That’s gonna be a $25k upgrade :p
yep, hopefully by then they will also have max pack, 800v system, Apple Car Play, a few more cup holders, and all of the bugs worked out.

Talked to CS about this way way back - would love if it was an option. Obviously for now they need fewer configurations though, not more ha - but still, I’m with you

Doubt it will happen without a significant redesign. That Bench contains the subwoofer. I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Would be a good alternative for those who wanted the 5 seater.

Hmm, it would be that big of a re-design. I mean, with today's advancement in acoustics, it's not difficult to get a really good 7-8" subwoofer in any of the middle or rear side panels. Price would be more of a concern to me than actual redesign.

My wife would buy one if this were offered. It's the only thing holding her back.
Maybe a van conversion shop might be able to help in the meantime? They might even have a few of those dark-tinted crescent moon windows laying around, too.
