Pros:
Looked great
Great interior
Spacious
Nice handling

cons: ( please comment- bc Dem
Compared to Tesla

loud both inside and outside. Quite a bit louder then any of my Teslas.

actual range ~260 not 315 the way I drive

no side camera when turning

limited hands free very limited. Only mapped highways.

Not identifying side and back cars

suspension rough on regular roads. Adjustable? Guide not sure. No time to play around with it.

driver facing camera - not turned on during demo per guide. Can you turn off if on?

There are like 10 suspension settings how would your guide not know this?

great question. It was rushed. I had no time to play with the consul. Any info on the other cons?

 

[Mpr]

When I told her that inside car noise was significantly greater than any of my teslas


Response. When you turn music on you will not hear it!!

Strange every review I've seen says it's quiet.

Ditto.

How do you figure out your actual range given how you drive without fully draining? It is a computerized estimate yes, and how do you pull from computer on the test drive?

Where was this test drive?

 

[Mpr]

Atlanta. Fairly hot day.

Glad to hear that others thought super quiet. May have been the demo vehicle.

Overall, will buy. Enjoyed. Hopefully upcoming over Wi-Fi updates will address some of the issues.

Since 2016 driven Tesla s,x,and now y. Used that experience combine with actual miles and battery drain during the 20 min test drive. Total guess.

 

[Mpr]

And yes. I do drive aggressively

Just had mine, did noice the noise... which seemed to be wind from super quick accelerations coming from the wide face of the vehicle, didn't bother me really.

On a side note, I'm in San Diego, CA and guide has said he's delivered about 60-75 cars locally here for anyone in the area wondering.

Makes sense.

Uh, as the "T" in "R1T" indicates, it's a truck...

People just aren't use to a truck going as fast as a Tesla.... I haven't driven a Raptor or a Dodge TRX... imagine the wind noise is those is drowned out by the ICE so its new perspective territory for people.

15k+ miles on my Tesla Y. That thing won't do more than 70% of stated range in real world conditions. I suspect Rivian is no different.
