MEET R2 AND R3 by Rivian - Rivian Stories

R2 is our versatile new midsize SUV with room for five people and all their gear.

Designed for big adventures as well as everyday use with its exceptional utility, performance and capability, R2 is expected to start around $45,000* and is available to reserve today in the U.S. for $100 ($150 in Canada). R2 deliveries are slated to begin in the first half of 2026.

R3 is a midsize crossover designed with even tighter dimensions and at a lower price point than R2.

R3X is the performance variant of R3. It further demonstrates the scalability of our midsize platform and delivers even more dynamic capabilities both on- and off-road.

R2 and R3 will feature two battery sizes. The larger pack will achieve over 300 miles of range on a single charge and offer 0-60 mph acceleration in under 3 seconds for the quickest powertrain configuration.

R2 and R3 are built on an all-new midsize vehicle platform, developed to deliver amazing performance, range and cost efficiency.

This platform consolidates and eliminates parts thanks to intelligent design, including the use of high pressure die castings, a structural battery unit where the top of the pack also serves as the floor, and closure systems that dramatically reduce complexity. R2 and R3 also utilize Rivian’s drivetrain platform and internally developed network architecture, computer topology and software stack.

Three Motor Variants: Leveraging Rivian’s in-house drive unit platform and technology, there will be Single-Motor (RWD), Dual-Motor (AWD), and Tri-Motor (two motors in rear and one in front) configurations, with the quickest configuration delivering 0-60 mph in under 3 seconds.

Structural Battery: Utilizes an all-new 4695 cell that offers significant improvements in energy density and output, estimated to deliver over 300 miles of range on a single charge for both R2 and R3.

Fast Charging:* DC fast charging is compatible with both NACS (native) and CCS (with adapter), charging from 10% to 80% in less than 30 minutes.

Self Driving: Utilizing our new perception stack featuring 11 cameras, five radars and a more powerful compute platform, R2 and R3 will provide dramatically enhanced autonomous capabilities.

Ever improving and expanding features: As with all Rivian vehicles, Rivian has developed its network architecture, topology of computers and associated full software platform to facilitate frequent software updates – the headroom for feature growth over time is extremely exciting.

**R2 and R3 demonstrate how Rivian’s unmistakable design language adapts to different vehicle sizes and form factors. **

R2's four passenger windows and rear powered glass drop fully, and the powered rear quarter windows vent to invite the outside in, creating a unique open-air driving experience.

With R3, its hatch-style design maximizes space while keeping a sporty, athletic silhouette.

Interior Space

With an extreme focus on rear passenger legroom, even long trips in R2 and R3 are comfortable. With the seats folding completely flat, ample sized front and rear trunks, and additional interior storage, there is space for everyone and all their gear.

Refined Touches

Rivian’s new steering wheel with integrated haptic control dials makes it easier to stay focused on the road ahead.

Materials balance durability and sustainability with easy to clean textiles and finishes.

A new line of Rivian Adventure Gear is also on the horizon.

We'll start later this year with our new Travel Kitchen and Hangout Lights. We are also looking forward to expanding the Adventure Gear assortment in the future with the Rivian Treehouse, our take on the rooftop tent bringing the nostalgia of an epic childhood fort with a lighting system, interior fan and incredible views.

Our custom Bike Mount holds up to two bikes and simply snaps into place easily using our Rear Accessory Ports, no tools needed. Our Cargo Box provides additional storage and can also be paired with our Travel Kitchen to expand your culinary suite with a Water Tank, Cooler and Cookware Set.

Reservations for R2 start today with a refundable deposit of $100 for U.S. residents and $150 for Canadian residents.

Reservations for R3, R3X and for international residents interested in R2 will follow at a later date.
