After Two Years of Waiting I Finally Drove the Rivian R2 and It Delivered
Rivian flew me out to Park City to drive the production R2 on road and off road, and after two days with it I’m convinced the only thing that can slow this car down is how fast Rivian can build them. Demand is not the problem. The R2 Performance is genuinely quick, the cabin stays quiet even on the all terrains, and the rear legroom is almost absurd for the size. The R2 Standard surprised me more than I expected too, and RivianOS 2.0 makes my R1 feel slow. Here’s the full rundown on the drive, the new pricing, the software, and where the autonomy roadmap is actually headed.
Rivian R2 Warranty Coverage Explained and How It Compares to R1
Rivian has shared R2 warranty terms ahead of demo drives, and every trim gets the same coverage, 4 years or 50,000 miles comprehensive and 8 years or 120,000 miles on the battery and drive system. That matches the entry R1 rather than the higher trims. Here is how it compares across both R1 generations.

NHTSA Reopens the Rivian Toe Link Issue and Now It Covers 114,922 Vehicles
NHTSA reopened the Rivian rear toe link issue in late May, and the new investigation covers 114,922 R1T and R1S vehicles, far more than the roughly 20,000 caught up in January’s recall. An investigation is not a recall and it may close with nothing, but the jump from a few thousand serviced cars to nearly the entire modern R1 fleet is the part worth watching, especially landing weeks before R2 deliveries start.
