All true, but you Macan won't be $60k ;-) Also, you may want to wait for the Porche/Rivian software architecture in 2027.

I don't mind having 10k units built before mine. Time on task.

Tuning any Porche into a modestly featured car is very expensive.

I asked the Rivian AI Assistant this exact question this AM. The answer was that it will be available with the Launch Edition: Q: I am hoping to order the R2 launch edition with the Coastal Cloud Signature interior. Is this possible? A: Yes, you can order the R2 Performance with the Launch...

I bet you are right.

Every car manufacturer has advertised a starting price for 50+ years. Every car manufacturer has options that add additional cost. Is the expectation that Rivian would include upgraded trim levels and options at no charge or that they would launch with all trim levels available immediately?

Tesla disagrees with you and has the best autonomous driving capabilities.

Tesla Wow, Half-Moon Gray with the light interior for me.

It all depends on a smooth launch and transition to production--if that happens and they hit their production promises...

It is the same thing on every configurator of every brand in the world.

I don't see 3 Peak symbol

I wonder if the 21" road tires will be 3PMSF--spending most of my time in MN and CO, this may be a deciding factor in wheel/tire selection.

I expect the Coastal Cloud interior color will have an upcharge also.

I was concerned that only the black interior would be available with the Launch Edition (Free Autonomy+ is a huge motivator to get the Launch Edition)--so I asked the Rivian AI Assistant about interior choices with the Launch Edition: Yes, you can order the R2 Performance with the Launch...

Interesting results, and the methodology seems logical. But why compare to the smallest PHEV from a non-luxury brand? Many cars are closer in size, performance, and features: BMW, Volvo, Rage Rover, and Genesis all have more comparable vehicles with PHEV drivetrains. You also used a very high...

Perfectly weather-tight. Not a drop gets in--rain or snow.

There are probably 10+ key decision points that affect the R2 buying decision. Singling out road trip charging performance as the most important and the key to the company's survival is not logical IMO. Brand image, acceleration, ergonomics, handling, zonal architecture, exterior esthetics...

The iPhone app or the Rivian app?

I do admit the upper GUI under the windshield is dang cool.

R2 is cooler. Time will tell, but Rivian's zonal architecture, cast frame, superior on-road performance, and off-road capabilities get my vote and pocketbook. Are you saying BMW will stop Rivian from selling enough R2s?
