Well it DID take Tesla nearly FIVE models years to bring it to the Model 3..

Programmable opening height is a pretty premium feature.. I doubt its going to be on the R2. That said. At 6’4”, don’t think it wasn’t the first (ok 2nd) thing I checked with our 2 minutes with the car. And it’s JUST barely enough not to hit my head when it’s open, which is my standard test for...

Right next to needless markup in the Stanford shopping center.

May I ask, what is so appealing about the Light interior? Is it just because it was always a preference for early R1t and R1s owners? So matter of personal preference? Is there something about the dark/grey interior that functions poorly? I’ve had both types across many car types, and in a...

I’m not sure about demos, haven’t seen any other than some limited press. But I think putting the 20’s with AT on the ones that a few have industry reporters and influencers were able to drive a few months ago, most of what I saw included a lot of off pavement driving, dirt track and terrain and...

Technically didn’t the R1s some out only 1 year after the R1t?.. that said, for a vehicle like the R1S, they only delivery 20K? In 2023 (nearly none in 2022, 650?), ~ 50K in 2024, and 42K in 2025.. I have the feeling that the R2 should try and get to at least 75k- 100K in 2027. Their production...

My god, how are these pads NOT a fire hazard.. ?

These days out west a LOT of hotels have Tesla destination charges it’s just that there aren’t very many of them per location and they usually only deliver maybe 72kw or less and there is either no rhyme or reason or system to manage multiple ppl who need to charge at them or they are behind...

I plan on getting the spare, and will probably SHARE it with some local friends or others in a group for mostly roadtrips or off road trips when the risk of more than just a puncture is high. It’s quality insurance, but I won’t carry it all the time of course when a flat fix kit might work, or...

I’m pretty sure that within 2 weeks once deliveries start, someone in the reviewer community will have done a swap out of the AT’s for AS or other on the 20” and we’ll have our answer. It’s the kind of thing that OOS would do in a heartbeat.

I think a BIG part of the nearly 10% range hit for the 20“ with AT’s IS the AT’s.. technically, with a more performance all season or dry season tire much of that 10% should be reduced to quite a bit less if not nothing..

The aerodynamic vents/slits on the roof of the R2, SHOULD reduce the vacuum effect, and low pressure drag that SUV’s and squared off back vehicles are known for.. so it SHOULD be better than the R1S for sure..could really even get to at least model X measurements for .cD

I’m 6’5”, more leg than torso a bit (inseam 36-37’) and I felt fine in the drivers seat, seat was NOT all the way back, had ~ 4” headroom still (short time in seat so didn’t complexly measure other than hand sideways) armrest placement was comfy, not too low, center console same (very much like...

Frankly, after employees as early access buyers, there are probably about 15-20 ”influencers” who should be prioritized to get vehicles in their hands as either buyers OR early release testers to take the vehicles through It’s paces. They are today, the road & track, Car & Driver, CAR...

You should be able to see the video here.

Almost certainly a large portion of employees, but then probably yes some ppl who will be given ordering access from NOW-June 8, 2026.. knowing full well that there are quite limited permuations for the LE, mostly only color - which they appear to have many of already built across colors, and...

I had a mercedes once, that automatically moved the wipers up and elevated them when the temp was below freezing and the car was parked.. maybe this is like that?

I posted this I think in another thread but once my neighbor gets their r2 in the next couple months I’m going to mold and 3d print an insert for that cavity with a thin rubber seal/lip along the top. We get so little rain out here depending on the season that I’d rather pop it out seasonally or...

And I believe, could be wrong, but didn’t Rivian say in their R2/technology day that all the other bits, the cameras, the onboard i/o and ”bus” and other things like connectors were all several generations compatible? So I’m think MAYBE there is a way in the future to do at least a cpu/gpu...
