First major nugget of information.... Emme just said the battery was not production and was only 75% performance of the 135kWH battery... this bodes better for the range numbers we were seeing from her article!

Rivian engineering weighed in on that and published estimates of what they think the range would have been based on the full size battery pack. I believe it was 167 miles. A bit more than half the estimated EPA range which is about what I would expect.

Actually, Rivian said she got about 167 miles on a charge and that the 135kwh production battery would get about 220 miles in offroad conditions.
