I had a deposit on an R1S and finally drove one yesterday after several months of serious interest. I've owned a couple of Teslas and two PHEVs (Toyota and Volvo) so that's my baseline. After driving the R1S, I didn't walk away blown away. It was nice enough but I was expecting more. If you've never driven an EV before I could see someone being impressed by the features; however, many of them aren't all that new or ground breaking. At ~$90K and after all the hype I left feeling neutral on Rivian. Still digesting and haven't completely ruled it out. Don't need an SUV replacement until the end of Q1 2024 anyway, so we'll see what happens.
