Pricing
Solid (almost full size) Electric SUV
While it is priced like a luxury SUV of years previous - this is not luxury, think electric 4Runner. People spending $80k+ on an SUV want Mercedes and BMW; buy those if you want luxury. This is a very capable four wheel drive vehicle. It rides like a body on frame SUV, just one that can accelerate like an early 00’s 911. The R1S is a bargain for those that had locked in pre-increase pricing; but at almost $100,000 now there can be more compelling option; unless you’re looking for a true large three row high capacity SUV - then there really is no competition.

3 months of frustration / giving up and selling
After three months of ownership I’m done, and planning to sell my R1S. Buying this thing was a huge mistake! Beware that the novelty wears off, and you’re left with a car that cannot be serviced, and a company that doesn’t know how to manage customer service or complaints. Virtually everything about owning this car has been disappointing: horrible and loud suspension; noises and clicks that sound like the car’s broken; inability to get the car serviced; lack of customer support; an app that requires you both log service issue and then upload photos, and then still get on the phone to speak to someone that doesn’t realize you’ve logged an issue or uploaded photos. Dumb, dumb, dumb mistake buying this thing. I’m selling it and I definitely won’t be coming back to purchase again.

Ac on high is very loud and vibrates dash board
When the cab is hot the Ac goes into high and there is a very loud noise and the pedals and steering wheel vibrates. If you google this issue it’s been going on for a year and no fix. They say working on it …Also calling service it takes a long time to connect.
I'm in love and I don't care who knows it!
This is a solid, rugged vehicle with simple luxuries that wow. I love the stability, weight, and handling of this car. It is easy and fun to drive, not to mention incredibly responsive and sturdy. The range is phenomenal and allowed me to quickly get over the range anxiety we had jumping into the EV world. Biggest loves: Very high quality ride Over the air updates means you get 'new features' constantly Rugged, boxy style, well set up for adventures or living out of the city Things I wish I could change: More L3 charging stations available to ease road trip timing (Not a dig on Rivian, but in general) Wish it had a tray for armrest storage (there's a big compartment, want more organization) Captains seats option for 2nd row

SUPER FUN, TOTALLY RELIABLE SUV
We've had our R1S for 14 months, 19,000 miles. It's been a joy. I haven't gotten over the confidence on and off road, and the brute, controlled, power. Visibility is great. The ride was a bit harsh before a software update about a year ago, but now that the ride is superb on all surfaces. It has not had any problems. We would buy this thing again in a heartbeat. It's our best car yet and we've had a lot of good ones!
