I currently drive a BMW X3M competition because I'm a speed demon and an outdoor enthusiast. An R1S with air suspension, up to 15 inches ground clearance that can also be lowered, hydraulic roll control, >800 hp, more space than my X3, and same mileage per "fill up" at half the cost sounds like a big win to me.
I've had two flats from rocky fire road driving and would love to not have to worry about the terrain when I'm getting out in the wild. The power sounds great but will probably be only a smidge faster than my X3M as I expect the HP to weight ratio won't be substantially better. No matter, it will certainly still hit mid/high 11s in the 1/4 mile and highway accel will be superb.
The Ford Lightning is too big for me and I don't want a truck. The Cyber Truck is same situation and years away. The Hummer has a stigma I don't want, it looks stupid, and will be too expensive. Everything else is a crossover and not really off road capable. So despite the Rivian having poor efficiency, it's gonna be the one for me.
