Since R2 launched in June, tens of thousands potential customers have taken a Rivian demo drive. We’ve seen all types take R2 for a spin — from EV veterans to first-timers, skeptics and believers. It’s been a blast hosting all of you, answering your questions and especially seeing the grins on your faces as you experience our vehicles IRL.
So, what's it like? No one says it better than you.
“There is nothing that replaces seeing this vehicle in person and driving it.”
“No showroom pressure, no sales pitch. Just a friendly guy named Steven, a key fob, and the open road. If the demo drive is any indication of how Rivian treats its customers, they’re doing something right.”
“Had my Rivian R2 demo drive today, and I have two words: BLOWN AWAY! [...] So, if anyone from Rivian happens to be reading this, feel free to bump my R2 to the front of the production line.”
[Editor’s Note: we can’t bump Chris’s order to the front of the production line.]
“Haven’t driven an electric before, so nothing to compare it to, but man I really enjoyed it. Put a smile on my face.”
“Almost speechless.”
“A quick shoutout to the Boston rep; genuinely helpful, patient, and answered everything I threw at him.”
“I haven’t had as much fun driving a car as I did in the R2.”
“Tried the hands-free driving system on the highway. It completely outperforms [competitor] which I use daily. It is simple to engage, highly reliable, and lets you relax and enjoy the view.”
“I made the mistake of taking a demo drive. Now I’m hooked.”
“Stopped by with our 180-lb Great Dane to make sure he fits. The final check. Cannot wait for the invite to order!”
“Love this roof. It was sooooo roomy too!!”
“Rivian R2, 3 car seats.”
“Parents rejoice!”
“BTW, the frunk fits a full set of golf clubs.”
