Purple Gen 2 Quad R1S Spotted. Debut seems likely soon...

[Race3]

As posted on Reddit (photos below), a purple gen2 quad was spotted with manufacturer plates. Any thoughts? Seems like the quad is coming soon. Hopefully... as they unveiled it awhile ago but haven't really shared much info on range, availability, options, etc.

It looks great in purple. Maybe I should have waited for the quad...

Sure looks legit to me. If not, someone went through a lot of trouble to make it look like a gen 2 quad.

Engineering out with a test mule?

The blue accents don't really go with the purple...I'm betting Rivian would do better about that in the design studio as good as they've been with the other colors. Maybe it's wrapped?

Compact car spot, really!?

Not a fan of the purple, but maybe some will like it.

Not my cup of tea.

That could be a gloss wrap, but I highly doubt it. Ew, I don't like that color AT ALL.

I’m excited for the quad’s unveiling but as for this particular color: The grape is not my jam.

Well you weren't around in the 90's lol. I feel like I saw many a Geo tracker with similar color schemes.

I would buy that color in an instant. Not that it is my favorite in any way, but just to help reinforce to OEMs we don't want all white, black, and silver vehicles.

Here I am wondering when they are going to open configurations for the gen 2 quad, being that it is now 2025 with no hints about it.

I really think that the Quad and NACS annoucments are immiment, in fact. In fact, I think they've been in production for a week. Factory had a shutdown over the holidays (which is when they usually roll in some tooling updates). Rumors before were they were planning for very early NACS rollout, and Quad has been early 2025. I think they've always been tied together, and the shutdown brought the tooling for both.

They probably have been building NACS since the shutdown, and the adapter announcement is in support of that.

I want drone video of the factory this week...

These G2 Quadmax are going to be monsters! Ultimate Halo vehicles for sure!

Not so sure about purple....I can't see ever driving a purple vehicle myself(prefer a lower profile)...but always like variety from a manufacturer. Can't see it selling in sufficient quantity to support it...but who knows...maybe just for the splash of the release.

Have we found Gary Busey?
