Validation builds for R2 are progressing on our pilot line!! Can’t wait for R2!!
Moderator update: Rivian reiterated today that R2 production is on track to begin first half 2026, with a starting price of $45K.
Close up look at new R2 wheels design.
I think in 2026, the dual-motor with color options and 330 miles of range wil fall between $55-60k. The tri-motor with 315 miles of range and color options will probably fall between $65-70k. Tri-motor likely coming first half of 2026. Dual-motor maybe second half of 2026 or first half of 2027...
