R2 is a slam dunk. R3 will have a cult following, but not the same mass-market appeal as R2. Hoping this company can cut costs and become profitable very soon.
Can confirm from working at the Normal plant, RJ is very friendly. Just as a regular team member you can still just pull him aside and have a conversation with him. Super approachable and open guy
2026 is a long time, but I appreciate the honesty instead of promising it next year and delay it repeatedly. The R2 and R3 look so slick, great work Rivian!
I’ve been in love with Rivian since the announcement of the R1T years ago. As with most people, it was, and will likely always be out of my price point, but the R2 is perfect. I’ve never put down $100 faster. Happy to be a Rivian reservation holder at last!
@@evanarevalo1126 I don't think they copied Toyota, I know a lot will probably say that but even as a Toyota fan i know the bronco had it and the suburban had it. but I am glad Rivian is carrying it on cuz I think it's an incredibly underrated useful feature

I'm Tesla for life, but I'm also a Rivian investor and I think they make great vehicles. I don't love SUVs or crossovers, but I really want Rivian to succeed. I love that Tesla is the NACS charging standard and available to Rivian soon (and every other EV from a major manufacturer), and that Rivian's own charging network will be open as well. Good job, Rivian! May you have a great ramp of all models and lots of sales!
WOW!! All the seats in the R2 fold flat - that'll be amazing for car camping. And that R3X is absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 What an incredible strike between retro and futuristic. The design team absolutely crushed it!! I bet that thing will be a blast to drive on and off road. Also, NACS for the win, and those new visuals on the car computers look sick!! Bravo all around. I put in my R2 reservation right away to trade up from my Model Y when they're ready. Can't wait.
Good job Rivian team. This was something of a masterplan rollout for the next few years. I hope Rivian does a pickup truck on the R2 platform. The R3 is Rivian's way to get into a more sedan/wagon space. Just hope you guys can execute it.
I loved the Steve Jobs (one more thing) moment when you just announced another product no one expected (R3 & R3X). I missed getting pumped on these types of events. Kudos! RJ 🎉
I really want the R3X as my next car. It has the looks and rally capabilities of a Lancia Delta HF Integrale while having the off road capabilities of a Suzuki Sidekick (maybe even a Jimny)
The design is amazing. Rivian, you have to come to Australia soon. We are a RHD market so hopefully the steering wheel can easily be moved to the right
If they start selling in Europe they’ll need to put the steering on the right for UK. Then I don’t see why not sell in Australia. Your laws and tax are not as crazy as Singapore.
I got goosebumps seeing all the new Rivians!!! They all look fun! I wish the team very best 🙌🏼🙌🏼 Rivian is so focused to deliver their products keeping their customers satisfaction to highest priorities. Eventually all the cars will have to go EV. I am sure they will succeed, they just need some time.
Yeah but the big question is will it be like the R1 where you add even a few basic options and the price suddenly skyrockets like crazy. I really hope it doesn’t because the vehicle looks great, but $4000+ for an extended battery, $3000 for this option, $4000 for that…it’s far from affordable at that point.
RJ, speed up the production of the R2. People are already excited and waiting on the R2 now. I am expecting a huge success so soon❤ NOVA area in VA is gonna love your Rivian more and more. Make a service center/dealership in Loudoun or Fairfax County it's worth the money and people will fall in love more with the R2
Agreed! Great to see another Northern Virginia Rivian fan on here. Love my R1T, hope to see R2's & R3's on the road around here in a couple more years. ❤
I literally can't think of a single scenario where I would ever need this. But I guess marketing to the .0001% is better than the majority, no wonder they go bankrupt.
Congratulations RJ to you and your amazingly talented and dedicated team. Planet earth needs more companies like yours and you’re bringing happiness to the humans. Thank you! I love what you guys are doing and can’t wait to get my Rivian!
@walberguedes it’s no just production it’s also consumer demand. That’s part of why they are halting the Georgia factory and will be pushing these out of Illinois. If they were backed up on thousands of orders they wouldn’t have held off construction of the factory, because they would’ve needed it for R2 demand.
@@brandongregory5128nope, it’s mainly production and that’s why they delayed delivered dates of their cars countless times. Not mentioning the reservations canceled due production incapabilities.
I think that would be too complicated in terms of delay and tooling. But they should consider that for future models when this model is in high demand and highly profitable.
Wow, this is so incredible. I've always admired Rivian as a company. But now I want a product from them even though I've never been a truck guy. This is crazy good.
Both of these offerings are going to be huge if they keep those prices down. Design is complete 🔥 I love the size, shape and overall feel of the R2, but man is that R3 a vibe. I’ll definitely be selling my model 3 to move into one of these in a couple years. I miss a bit bigger car with more open storage. I really really hope Rivian gets it all together and get can profitable. We need them to survive.
I really wanted an r2T... but I had no idea how much I wanted the r3. This looks like the absolute perfect replacement for my leaf, as it fixes my problems I have with my current leaf (range, off road ability, and road trip ability)... when can I pre-order it?
I love Rivian style. My three favorite companies style wise is Rivian, Polestar, and Volvo. I've been buying Tesla cars because of the charging network but I love all the new EVs that are available. The R3X brings back the passion my generation had for Bronco and Scout and takes it to a new level. How about a R3T?
Amazing product line. Both the R2 Tri-Motor and R3X will fit my needs. I am super excited to be able to pre-order the R2 and hopefully a R3X soon. Great job Rivian, bravo!!
is it me or does the R3X looks like a old school VW GOLF (Rabbit) at least from sideprofile... I love it... back is great... sadly still don't like the Rivian fronts in general (mosly cuz of the lights)
I’ve been a fan of their products since the beginning. Definitely excited for them to continue to grow. I hope they continue to work on those issues with employee safety at their factories.
That was an awesome release! I can’t wait to get my R2. Out the deposit down before I finished the presentation- no doubt the R3x will be mine as well! Reminds me of my 1984 GTI
The live audience wooting and hollering makes it feel like it's at an evangelical church or an Amway convention where everyone is trying to convince each other to keep falling for it. They should honestly just do the intro like a normal youtube vid where the vehicles are introduced. And that way I wouldn't feel like I'm being manipulated with fake social proof. Having said that, I love the trucks.
Anyone doubts Rivian is gonna lose a lot😉 I really really love Rivian and I am so optimistic about it ❤ I love u, RJ and I wish you the whole success with Rivian❤️
Love it! Great job to RJ & the Rivian team. I’m very excited for the production of these and I hope the recently poor stock performance experiences a rapid and sustaining recovery.
I have been interested in Rivian for some time now. First contact via the series on AppleTV Long Way up 2020. Since then I have sporadically followed the development. I recognize that there are people working on the product who understand their work and can convey the warmth and accessibility to us as urban mobility very well.I'm really looking forward to testing your products here in Europe too 👍
More great looking SUV's from Rivian! Can't wait until I can buy a Rivian delivery van! Very happy to see you are top safety pick! I loved seeing the wind turbine at your Normal Illinois facility! Pulling the tractor trailer out of a ditch! Great thing!
For some reason, I can see the R3X being a car some car enthusiasts would pick to modify. It already sits fairly low for an SUV, as well as the short wheel gap in between the wheel & the fenders. I can already see these being slammed on air suspension.
Rivian does a great job with utility... very practical.. good job! Would be good if they shared more details on the technical infrastructure... does this run on 48V?
Wow its amazing, perfect size. Exactly what i was waiting for. Rivian has take a step above Tesla, and this coming from a owner who has own the model 3 and currently has the model Y. Great job, just in time for me to place my order.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the R3x!!!!! OMFG I totally want one!!! PLEASE Survive Rivian! I love your company but sadly cannot afford the R1, I wish you success and if the R3x comes to fruition I WILL Buy one!! (I am Canadian, and I don't need a 3 row SUV)
I can see it now...All smiles blasting through whoops in the R3x after dropping the kids off😎 Love what this company is doing! Super consumer focused with design that meets both form and function!

That was an awesome release! I can’t wait to get my R2. Out the deposit down before I finished the presentation- no doubt the R3x will be mine as well! Reminds me of my 1984 GTI
The live audience wooting and hollering makes it feel like it's at an evangelical church or an Amway convention where everyone is trying to convince each other to keep falling for it. They should honestly just do the intro like a normal youtube vid where the vehicles are introduced. And that way I wouldn't feel like I'm being manipulated with fake social proof.
Having said that, I love the trucks.
Anyone doubts Rivian is gonna lose a lot😉
I really really love Rivian and I am so optimistic about it ❤
I love u, RJ and I wish you the whole success with Rivian❤️
Love it! Great job to RJ & the Rivian team. I’m very excited for the production of these and I hope the recently poor stock performance experiences a rapid and sustaining recovery.
Bring it to Europe and we will buy one immediately. 🙏😍
I have been interested in Rivian for some time now. First contact via the series on AppleTV Long Way up 2020. Since then I have sporadically followed the development. I recognize that there are people working on the product who understand their work and can convey the warmth and accessibility to us as urban mobility very well.I'm really looking forward to testing your products here in Europe too 👍
This company is going to go far, their contract with Amazon is a great indicator.
More great looking SUV's from Rivian! Can't wait until I can buy a Rivian delivery van!
Very happy to see you are top safety pick!
I loved seeing the wind turbine at your Normal Illinois facility!
Pulling the tractor trailer out of a ditch! Great thing!
These are GORGEOUS! The best part is that they’ll be coming to Europe!!! ❤
I’m definitely holding off on getting a car until they’re here.
Great cars and wonderful family. ❤ love it.
For some reason, I can see the R3X being a car some car enthusiasts would pick to modify. It already sits fairly low for an SUV, as well as the short wheel gap in between the wheel & the fenders. I can already see these being slammed on air suspension.
Rivian does a great job with utility... very practical.. good job!
Would be good if they shared more details on the technical infrastructure... does this run on 48V?
Great products, great future to this company. I see it as a vital part of the American auto industry.
Much love and good luck you guys
Thank You for All that you are doing for Planet Earth.... Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste 🙏🏻 😊 🌈 ✌ ☮ ❤
Genuinely Amazing. I believe having both (R2 and R3) would fit the family needs pretty well.
I wish you all the wishes Rivian. You are doing tremendously wonderful things by building these beautiful machines. Love it ❤….
Love these updates! Rivian Will absolutely dominate this market with these releases!
Wow its amazing, perfect size. Exactly what i was waiting for. Rivian has take a step above Tesla, and this coming from a owner who has own the model 3 and currently has the model Y. Great job, just in time for me to place my order.
Well done, team. I love my R1T. These all look amazing.
15:20 first row seats folding flat is awesome. I had that on my old Tiguan, super handy for longer items like 2x4s, skies, etc..
Steve-o is really smart. Great job Rivian!!!!!!
Make them in *RHD* too, please and thank you! The R2 would look great on Australian roads :D
LOVE LOVE LOVE the R3x!!!!! OMFG I totally want one!!! PLEASE Survive Rivian! I love your company but sadly cannot afford the R1, I wish you success and if the R3x comes to fruition I WILL Buy one!! (I am Canadian, and I don't need a 3 row SUV)
I can see it now...All smiles blasting through whoops in the R3x after dropping the kids off😎 Love what this company is doing! Super consumer focused with design that meets both form and function!
Love my R1T! Best vehicle ever. Keep it up Rivian!
