We have now reached the 1 year mark of Rivian accepting pre-orders for the R1S and R1T!

What's been surprising to me is that Rivian hasn't released pre-order numbers yet. I know they like to fly under the radar but it'd be great to know how many people have placed orders.

So since the numbers aren't out yet, I'm curious to know how long have people been waiting for their Rivian(s).

If you've placed a pre-order already, how long ago was it?

Hi. Pre ordered the R1S in Nov 2018, I think it was one day after AMZN invested. Would love to know as well!

Hi @RGuigley! We may not have detailed number yet but we now know that there's 10,000 pre-orders at least.

Rivian Pre-Orders Hit 10,000

As of December Rivian has received around 10,000 pre-orders according to a report from the Frost & Sullivan research firm! The company will start delivering its first products i.e., electric pickup trucks and full-size SUVs in the last quarter of 2020. It has already secured 10,000 pre-orders...

Hi @Towjon! What made you decide to place an R1S order after the R1T? Planning on getting both?

 

[Towjon]

Not for sure but I not totally a rich bitch. But I now have a 2007 Lincoln truck which is great, also a 2009 Jeep rubicon which I also like, bought both new. But there was nothing worth the money till I read about rivian. When they become available I have daughter with young kids driving a six yr old unit, who knows about both will just have to see how things look. Towjon. What are you looking at?

I have my eyes on the R1T, I like the versatility of having a pickup and it looks to be more fun off-road than the R1S.

I placed a pre-order for a vehicle in February of 2019. I have no plans to cancel my order and quite the opposite would like to order two instead.

we as a family have been on deposit for a R1T and R1S since May 2019. Wife wants the R1S, and I am more drawn to the R1T

 

[Towjon]

It hurts I had my heart set on both one for myself and second for family/ daughters / husband and kids. I think it’s bit +- ten months for r1t and r1s for half that long, daughters family bin saving a lot because I told them I was only dumb enough to go half. They got the rivian bug almost as bad as I do.i
have a nephew that lives by factory and says no real sign of much other than working on inside of building and looks like big open space around first of the yr when got a look. Again I am 73 and like to use it for awhile before the game is done. Towjon

Hopefully things speed up sooner than that. Apparently Rivian's employees are slowly getting back to work at the Normal plant.

Welcome to the forum @Shah! So far Christmas seems to be coming next summer based on the latest reports. Have you owned other EVs before or will the R1T be your first?
