I was browsing through the site and saw two different variations of where the bumper brackets are placed. The video shows at a different location compared to the first image that pops up when viewing r1s.

I think Rivian Marketing team should have caught this before publishing the images to live site

Production tow hooks should be the Red Canyon picture.

I think I personally like the design from white pic as it is integrated in the frame and doesn't look odd

A lot, majority probably, of the pics on the site are of the prototypes/pre-production models still. Makes sense really, they;re the ones that have been out in the interesting place the last few months getting tested and used.

I wonder if the configurator would have the right design atleast. Because sometimes, small things do matter for people while selecting. You don't want a really weird thing on a highly anticipated vehicle

I think the new design looks cleaner and is more functional. It is higher up on the vehicle, so easier to use if you're actually stuck, and is also more aerodynamic...
