...or at least get some of these early production units in the hands of automotive journalists and youtubers like they did with the R1T.

They did mention they are currently delivering R1T, R1S, and EDV700 on the call yesterday. No details but it was mentioned.
People like pictures.... would have been a good move to release those yesterday... Regardless, I'm happy to see the R1S in the wild with people driving them.

I would say just keep cranking out those R1T's! I'm so far down that list...

Just Kidding. I'm sure those longtime R1S Preorder holders are chomping at the bit! Your time is soon!

If you noticed all of their posts they have recorded, or taken pics None of them are of rear end... definitely an embargo until XYZ date.

Exactly... each and every ONE of them. Should be entertaining.

If I remember correctly, there was something like a 2 month lag between R1T employee deliveries and real customer (non-employee) deliveries. Hopefully a shorter with R1S

I'm sure it is, but do you know this for a fact?
one comment on IG says its the VP of Eng and from the company website it looks like her so pretty solid evidence.

This was my thought. Doug Demuro hinted an R1S review is coming, but I’m betting there’s an embargo until later this month. We shall see.

Yes, it is. Her name is Vidya. I knew her when we both worked at Xilinx.
