- I'm so excited to have all of you here.
Let me introduce you to R2.
(tranquil music)
And so we're gonna walk through the vehicle,
but just starting here at the front,
in the front of the vehicle,
we have a large front storage trunk.
This is great for putting luggage, backpacks, your gear.
Now, if we go around the side of the vehicle
and you just saw, or maybe you saw
these quarter windows pop out.
We leverage the negative pressure off the back
of the vehicle to pull natural air through
and it creates this beautiful open air feeling experience.
And then the rear glass, which you just saw drop also opens.
The second row seats fold flat,
but also, the first row seats fold flat
and the first row seats folding flat,
(audience cheering)
let's say you're camping or staying right in the vehicle,
it creates this awesome in-vehicle camping experience.
It's about 400 millimeters shorter than an R1S.
And in addition to being shorter, or shorter in wheel base,
it's also lower in height.
One of the points of feedback was a desire for a glove box.
(audience cheering)
And on R2, we over delivered
and we put two glove boxes in.
(audience laughing)
So we have these really nice large scroll wheels
on the steering wheel.
There's dynamic haptic feedback.
So it allows us to adjust
what it's feeling like when you're scrolling.
A lot of work went into the doors.
Moved the speaker out of the door, gives this space
for a large water bottle here.
And of course, it wouldn't be a Rivian,
you have another flashlight in the door.
(audience cheering)
And we built an entirely new platform
to underpin this vehicle.
And it's built around a a 4695 cell.
So it's a cylindrical cell, 46 millimeters in diameter,
95 millimeters tall.
It's a much larger cell than the 21 millimeter diameter cell
that we have in R1 today.
So the battery pack in the floor actually makes up
a big part of the vehicle structure.
The top of the battery pack
is actually the floor of the vehicle.
We have a single motor, rear wheel drive variant.
We have a dual motor, one motor in the front,
one motor in the back, all-wheel drive variant.
And then we have a tri motor, two motors in the back,
(audience cheering)
one in the front.
And then the highest performance variance of the vehicle:
zero to 10 in well undeR3 seconds.
(audience cheering)
Yeah, so it's very quick.
And then all those motor combinations
can achieve over 300 miles in range.
And this has 11 cameras, five radars, you know,
four radars in a corner, one long range radar in the front,
which will label this to enable this
to have a very high level of self-driving.
And for us that represents being able to get on the highway,
take your hands off the wheel, eyes off the road,
and truly operate it where you get your time back.
And so the R2 starting price will be $45,000.
(audience cheering)
And you can reserve one starting today.
I'm really, really excited to talk about R2's sibling.
- What? - Which we call R3.
(audience cheering) (lively music)
- [Audience Member] Oh my god,
(audience cheering) (lively music)
- So you didn't expect that one more thing here.
(audience cheering) (audience laughing)
So R3, it takes the package of R2
and the platform, it shrinks it, it puts into our take
on what is a crossover.
Up front, we have a front storage trunk,
much like what we had in R2, but I wanna spend some time
in the back.
And what you just saw happen is the rear lift gate came up.
Just like we saw in R2,
the first and the second row seats fold flat.
But when we close this, there's a second way to get
to the back, which we call our flipper glass.
And (audience cheering)
what I love about this
is it makes it easy to get things in and out,
but this actuation can actually go to multiple heights.
Same thing we had with R2
with the control wheels and the steering wheel.
Lots of flexibility in terms of storage, two glove boxes.
And of course, we still have a flashlight here.
(audience cheering)
But there's one more thing.
One more thing.
We wanted to take everything that's embodied
and put it into an even higher performance package.
And this is something we call R3X.
(upbeat music)
Lots of subtle differences.
It's a wider wheel and tire, little wider stance,
more ground clearance, tri-motor setup.
This is an interior combination
we internally call rugged playful
because it looks rugged and it looks playful.
But the use of materials
and the use of how we laid out those materials with cork
and with interesting weaves
and interesting ways to anodize metal,
it feels so uniquely Rivian,
but also so unique to this vehicle
and to the performance variant.
We're gonna be pulling the timing in to allow R2
to start deliveries in the first half of 2026.
(audience cheering)
So we're also building a high-speed charging network.
We call it a Rivian Adventure Network.
It's rapidly being built out.
Within a few years, we'll have 600
of these charging locations,
and it'll be an open network, so it'll be Rivian vehicles,
as well as non-Rivian vehicles.
And beyond that, we, of course, integrate
across the other third party platforms.
And importantly, in fact, this month,
our vehicles will be able
to access the Tesla Supercharger network.
(audience cheering)
Thank you everyone so much
for joining us today to hear about our future.
