Current total number of R2 reservations?

You should be in pretty good shape to get one by then...I'm actually looking for a "bridge EV" to get me by until the R2 is available. My twins are high school seniors and are going to take my two ICE vehicles (a Highlander and an Outback) to school with them in the fall, leaving me without wheels (the R1S is clearly my wife's). I reached out to our local VW dealer about the $149/month 2-year lease on the ID.4 Standard but there's no inventory available. She did tell me that she could put me in an ID.4 Pro S for about $400/month with a 3-year lease, but I'm an optimistic guy and hope that the R2 is available in 2026. I may just buy a used EV to get me by.

Check out Leasehackr. Stuff pops up there, like my Equinox EV. The deals for mine aren’t there now(Conquest, Costco) but by prepaying the lease my total cost out the door was $4822 for 24 months. I believe November/December was a particularly good time to get one on the cheap.

Thank you - I hadn't heard of it but will definitely look there. That's exactly what I'm looking for and I don't really care which vehicle I get as long as it's full EV. If I could buy 20K miles for around $5K with it ending in 2 years it would be perfect!

I did 10k/yr. I’m retired, miles low around town, occasional 850 mile RT to my daughter’s. We have a RAV4 Prime we normally drive up there.

Yeah - That's what I need. My wife and I both work 100% from home, but there are still times when we need 2 vehicles. I guess the other thing I should look at is just how often we need 2 vehicles...I'd probably save a lot of money by taking Uber if it's only once or twice a week versus the cost of a car plus insurance! There are also places I frequent (i.e. Costco) where I prefer not to take the Rivian, but that's a hassle with Uber.
