May 2025 Rivian Deals, Rebates, and EV Trade-In Discounts

Rivian has a few updated lease and trade-in offers for May that are worth knowing if you’re thinking about ordering an R1T or R1S.

First up is the “Nothing but Adventure” lease offer, which runs through May 31. If you lease a 2025 Dual Motor R1T or R1S with the Max battery and Performance Upgrade, Rivian will contribute $6,500 toward your down payment. This is applied as a lease rebate when you order through the R1 Shop, and you’ll need to take delivery by the end of the month.

This can be combined with the $7,500 EV lease credit, which is applied directly to the lease—no waiting for a tax refund. That’s $14,000 in total lease incentives baked into your monthly payments.

Here are a couple example offers Rivian is highlighting:

• R1S: $1,039/month with $2,434 due at signing
• R1T: $989/month with $2,384 due at signing

There’s also a refreshed Electric Refresh offer that gives you $3,000 off when you trade in a battery-electric vehicle. That discount applies whether you’re leasing or buying and can be stacked on top of the lease incentives. Just make sure to start with a trade-in estimate and coordinate with a Sales Advisor to ensure it’s applied.

A quick heads-up: in April, Rivian accepted trade-ins of hybrids and gas vehicles, but starting in May, the Electric Refresh offer is limited to BEV (battery-electric vehicle) trade-ins only. This version of the offer runs through June 30.

Nothing here is groundbreaking, but if you’re already in the market and qualify, it’s a nice chunk of savings that can ease the upfront cost of a new Rivian.
