Can I at-least get a R3X matchbox this year for Xmas, please?

Can Rivian just make individuals and family set of R1T, R1S, R2, R3, R3X and sell them in the Shop

Looks so good on the move in public. Perfectly sized. And so different in styling than anything available. Please move up production into 2025 somehow RJ

I'm loving the R3 more literally every time I see a photo.

My first car was an 11 year old, $600 1981 VW Rabbit. The nostalgia vibes are very real.

This reminds me of how, when we first got the Hyundai Ioniq 5, we were struck by how it printed like a small car in pictures and videos (and even in person, from a distance), but it was actually larger when you got up on it and then the interior is deceptively big because of the space that the electric drivetrain affords. I expect this will be the same - we are all thinking hot hatch and comparing it to old ICE hatchbacks, but it might feel a lot roomier once you get in it.*

*This is all based on conjecture, extrapolation, and happy thoughts, but that's what this forum is going to be for the next 2+ years

Edit: After comparing the dimensions of the Ioniq 5 to the ones extrapolated for the R3X in another thread, the R3X is (as estimated) a lot shorter (~20 inches). So, not as surprising larger on the outside, but I still think the inside will be roomier than some of the cars we've been tossing around as '80s and '90s hot hatch comparisons.

From the video it looks smaller than the Ioniq 5... and if these dimension guesstimates are anywhere close, it will actually be significantly smaller :

R3 / R3X Dimensions: ~161.4 in length / ~59.5 in height ? (Ionique 5 is 182.5" length)

Yup, you're right! I think we were both doing the math at the same time.

and at 20" shorter than the Ioniq 5, the R3X / R3 definitely qualify as hot hatches! Since it's basically GTI sized, the quintessential hot hatch.

Wow, that looks slicker than the reveal.

Look how roomy Honda is able to make the little civic. The BMW mini and the VW golf are also roomy inside for their size. An EV platform will be even more interesting.

I don’t know why but I want a R3X. Absolutely no need for it but I am going to fork over the money and buy one as soon as it’s available.

Ditto

They need to fast track the R3 and R3X....seems extremely sellable....

Beg, borrow, steal …. As I am getting one as soon as it is available.
