The hardware is another story. My R1S was a hunk of junk. It was the worst experience I’ve ever had with a car and I will never consider another Rivian.
Bad timing though, in an age where talking about software sovereignty is all the rage.
So it is pretty good by 2026 standards. 10 years ago this would have been considered a failure, today it is a feature.
I had an R1T Launch Edition for a little over a year and it was hands down one of the best cars I’ve ever owned. The only issue I had was with the fob proximity sensor. The only reason I sold it was it was a bit too big for me.
