Just trying to explain to a few in this thread why it is temporarily $12k more than current Model Y Prem AWD.
This was exactly the same case for the Launch Ed Model Y "Juniper". It included...paint upgrade, wheel upgrade, interior upgrade, boost mode, tow hitch, FSD.
Juniper LE was priced at...
The LE comes with following included...
Grey interior - $1000
Cosmic silver paint - $2000
20in wheels - $2000
Tow hitch - $1000
12 month FSD - $1188
12 month supercharging - ?
$7188 value + whatever you value 12 months of free supercharging. This is the reasoning behind the Launch Ed pricing.
Apples to apples...it is $2k more than the "Juniper" Model Y Launch Ed.
(white interior, paint, 20in wheels, tow hitch, 12month FSD, 12month supercharging...is no up charge on LE)
Once LE is sold out they will debut Premium models.
It isn't an R2 competitor. Only 4 inches shorter than a R1S. Honestly for people driving R1S that never use the third row, this is a great option.
Same battery pack size as R1S max pack...but much more efficient, better range and over double max charging speed.
Rivian tech is starting to get...
iX5 xdrive60 is 6,393lbs. Cayenne S Electric is 5,695lbs.
I would definitely take the extra 31kwh. When it comes down to it, they are both fatty 2.5+ ton EV's.
This. Also the conversion rate of reservations will be lower than most think.
If Rivian can ramp up production like they say, I wouldn't worry too much.
No option LE is $1,000+/month lease with $3k+ due at signing(when you include taxes).
Rivian wants customers buying early production, competitive lease rates are way down the road.
Yeah with no options in SoCal. It is $1,039/month with $3,381 due at signing.
No the advertised lease is with $3500 down. Total $5,724 due at signing, which includes down payment, deposit, acq fee, first payment.
Official now...for the $600/month dreamers it was never happening.
Perf (no options) $57,990 - $829/month with $5,724 due at signing. (not including taxes)
My comparable builds each trim, as those are the two trims I would be interested in.
R2 Prem - $60,245 +dest
EX60 P10 Plus - $63k +dest
My guess is discounts will be a lot easier to get on Volvo than the R2.
Very compelling offerings. Great pricing.
P10 AWD seems to be direct comparison to R2 Prem. Interior and paint no additional cost on EX60. 400kw DC peak speeds is very tempting.
LE seems like a good deal, while they last.
My Premium R2 spec is $63.2k with dest. Honestly not far from my iX3 spec I keep building at $68.3k with dest. Expected them to be further apart to make it a no brainer.
Macan EV has been at US dealers nearly 2 years and is now not selling very well(like most EVs in US). But Macan EV customers who bought or leased early had to pay their early adopter fee. Lets see how US market treats iX3, most likely end of Q4 there will be available units on lots.
R2 will...
For US market, iX3 is likely the best EV road tripper you can order right now. New Cayenne EV probably peak, but at double the price...it isn't twice as good.
Definitely fair. The iX3 50xdrive has 114 mile more range than the R2 Prem AWD. That is massive...32% more range.
The iX3 reviews have backed up BMW stated range numbers. Lets see independent reviews of R2 real world range figures and efficiency.
