Can we stop street racing on public roads.
You don't know the speed limit on that road... maybe the R1 just gapped the Lambo as the first one to the speed limit?

Then call me small ego all you want, I love the power of takeoff from a light to the speed limit. *shrug*

No.

Rivian R1T R1S R1S vs Lamborghini Huracan race 1718208059440-p5




This moron tried to race off a light a couple times, and wouldn't give up, so this time, when he went full volume, I just paced him and waved "go ahead" with my hand before taking off. He was pissed and gave me the finger when I backed off and he went by. LOL.

I will never stop being 15 years old.

Impressive. Obviously the Huracan will win over a longer distance, but the gap the Rivian puts on at the start is surprising. Imagine the new 1,000+ hp model.

The sound of the Lambo though...
Sound = wasted energy instead of hp/torque. No thanks.

I'll take the Lambo interior and exterior styling though. ;-)

+ 1

The Rimac interior is impressive as well. And a similar steering wheel shape too.

Actually, I'll just settle for 1) a *real* leather, 2) a sun/moon roof that actually opens/closes by a push of a button as well as a shade to go w/ it, and 3) a *real premium* sound system; otherwise, you can keep your pleather, glass roof, and p.o.s. speakers incl. the over-engineered under-whelming Bluetooth camp speaker!

I may be an outlier but I love my camp speaker. I use it most weekends when I’m somewhere our Sonos (Sonoses ? Soni ?) doesn’t reach.

The Rivian @ $110,000 stood its ground with a Lambo starting at $249,000....not bad. I can buy an R1T (we have) and an R1S for the price of 1 Hurrcan.

It's a great option, even if it's not the ultimate sound. I'll never play it loudly. I had the same thing in my Jeep Launch Edition Gladiator. It's always got a place to live, that keeps it charged. I'm annoyed at charging things. And at storing things. It works well and I don't have to care that I left it outside in the rain, which WILL happen with my memory.

Would I pay what they ask for it? HELLLLLL NO. Bury it in the Launch Edition cost? Sure, lol.
