Why is Rivian removing the Quad-Motor AWD + Max pack R1T from configurator?

Quad-Motor + Max pack will not be selectable in the configurator beginning in early 2023. Instead, R1T with Max pack will only be available in a Dual-Motor AWD configuration.

This update introduces a more energy dense Max pack design that pairs with our Dual-Motor drive system to deliver long range with outstanding performance at a lower price point. Making this change supports our continued focus on simplifying the production process as we scale.

Once configurator has been updated in early 2023, preorder holders that have R1Ts configured with Quad-Motor + Max pack will move to Dual-Motor + Max pack and see a pricing adjustment.

For customers who placed a preorder on or before March 1, 2022:

switching from Quad-Motor + Max pack to standard Dual-Motor + Max pack will reduce price by $4,500 ($6,250 CAD)
switching from Quad-Motor + Max pack to enhanced Dual-Motor + Max pack will reduce price by $2,000 ($2,750 CAD)

For customers who placed a preorder between March 2, 2022 and May 25, 2022:

switching from Quad-Motor + Max pack to standard Dual-Motor + Max pack will reduce price by $6,000 ($7,750 CAD)
switching from Quad-Motor + Max pack to enhanced Dual-Motor + Max pack will reduce price by $1,000 ($1,250 CAD)

Note: We plan to add a Quad-Motor with additional capability in the future that will pair with the Max pack. We will release pricing for this new variant closer to launch.
