Storm Blue R1S Quad Launch Edition Sold Out, R1T Inventory Low

The Storm Blue R1S Quad Launch Edition has officially sold out. If you’re hoping to lock in that color on a Launch Edition, you’re out of luck. The R1T Quad Launch Edition in Storm Blue still has a few units left, but inventory is running low.

Rivian Adds 2026 R1T and R1S Inventory to R1 Shop
