Rivian R1S
Sitting next to an SUV with that model designation. Nice looking rig, appears to be in the same chassis as pickup. No plates out. Marty

I think I've seen one or two around here. I don't know if Rivian will get it together and approach the production capacity of Tesla. Their R1S certainly looks much better than a Tesla Model Y, both in terms of looks and practicality. However, the sticker price is not very practical for either one.
The production ramp is ongoing but it’s taking longer than some thought it would. One interesting thing is they are following teslas lead on developing their own private DC fast charging network. Their L2 network is open to the public but their DC fast charge network is exclusive to Rivian. It will be interesting to see how fast it develops.
