Owners can save up to three trailer profiles, part of Rivian's efforts to make driving range more predictable while towing.

A 400-mile R1S electric truck retains its full third row, thanks to new cell tech with higher energy density—and resulting gains in energy efficiency and packaging efficiency.

Tesla production and deliveries didn't amount to what it needs to meet its annual target—but Rivian shows promise.

Rivian’s latest software update shows that its EVs' ride and handling tuning doesn’t end at delivery.

The 410-mile range applies to trucks with 21-inch wheels; range drops to 380 miles with 22-inch wheels and 355 miles with 20-inch wheels and all-terrain tires.

Up to 15 inches of ground clearance, a quiet and clean propulsion system, impressive range, and an Adventure Network add up to such great heights in the three-row electric SUV.

Rivian's Dual-Motor models top equivalent Quad-Motor versions. Dual-Motor versions with the Max Pack are yet to come and might top 400 miles.

Rivian claims its R1S electric SUV is the first EV to tackle the Rubicon off-road trail, long considered a yardstick for hardcore off-road vehicles. No mechanical issues or tire failures were experienced during the drive.

Pass-through charging could solve the problem of multiple vehicles needing to be charged in a single location where there may not be room for enough chargers.

Both Rivian and Lucid cut their production estimates last year. The two EV hopefuls have been learning the same lesson Tesla did with the long ramp up of Model 3 production, namely that making cars is hard.

Rivian's CFO said the R2 will expand the automaker into the $40,000 segment when it debuts in 2024.

Another shift to NACS standard—another shockwave across the CCS front?

This mode that helps sell truck enthusiasts on the strength of electric propulsion could also be too easily abused when treading lightly is an off-road priority, Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe explained.

The interface adds Tesla Supercharger locations, although Rivian drivers must also then use the Tesla app.

Along with new, higher range ratings for models with Dual Motor models, Rivian revealed that the smaller, mass-market R2 lineup will be simplified and easier to build.

The EV maker has sound engineers record birds in Yellowstone National Park; it then isolated one part, sped it up, and increased the pitch.

The Rivian EDV is an electric delivery van designed by Amazon with the goal of changing the delivery game.

Rivian is readying its own dual-motor components for the R1S and R1T and aiming to make them the popular choice over far more expensive-to-build quad-motor trucks.

Through over-the-air updates, Rivian has improved the cold-weather livability of its trucks and added app-based preconditioning for cabin comforts—and official EPA ratings rise with a retest.

The award applies to 2022 and 2023 R1T models, but it doesn't extend to the related R1S SUV.
