Reviews Summary | |
Reviews SummaryVerdict: Entering its third model year, the 2024 Rivian R1T offers electric vehicle shoppers several powertrain options, three sizes of battery, and a driving range spanning from 270 to 410 miles per charge. Dual- and quad-motor arrangements provide plenty of grunt to get this truck down the road speedily. The cabin is futuristic and airy, outward visibility is excellent, and there are adult-friendly degrees of headroom and legroom no matter where you’re seated. The only caveat is that the R1T—and its sibling the Rivian R1S sport-utility—has a hefty starting price of approximately $73,000. | |
