It would make sense for them to pivot to the same LG 4695 and enjoy economy of scale savings. But, can LG’s new US plant deliver the volume?
I imagine that would require some serious re-engineering of the the pack..... and thus the whole underside of the vehicle.

No news yet.. it is august.. the incentives aren't better either - so 2027 is not anything meaningful?

Here is what I learned about the 2027 R1 from a Rivian salesperson was truly honest with me in guiding my decision - told him I am undecided about buying a used 2025/2026 R1T or a new 2026 R1T with some incentives, or waiting for the 2027, learn about the differences, and then maybe buy a 2026 R1T with steeper incentives.

He said, everything is under tight wraps, no one knows what 2027 is, but it will be here in a couple of weeks, maybe mid-August. He also said there may be more updates to R1S versus R1T.Speculated that the halo wheel may make it and changes will be minor/under the hood.
incentives and selection of 2026 R1T/R1S may come down if you wanted to wait. but may be worth it in my case.
