Rivian R1T is first EV to cross the finish line of The Mint 400, a wild off-road race

[Administrator]

Rivian recently became the first EV to cross the finish line of The Mint 400, a wild off-road race through the desert foothills outside Las Vegas that for decades has inspired not just automotive and racing fans but novels, movies, and more. Congrats to our team of test engineers who made it happen! ?? - Rivian

Nice! I always want to know more about if they did with the truck.
Is it on KO3's?
Maybe something even more aggressive.

New KO3s! Had the chance to attend and meet some of the crew thanks to RCA. Great hearing the cheers from the crowd as the Rivian finished.

Meanwhile, a Cybertruck was sitting in a shaded tent on the midway the whole time!

This is Bat Country!

I see Baja Designs was a sponsor, but I don't see any aftermarket lighting on the truck.

While fueling up in Barstow that weekend, this truck pulled up, being towed by another R1T at that!

I wanna see more about that rack/wind buffer they've got going on...

Curious how the suspension held up after those ~140 miles, the bump stops sure got a workout.
