R2 First Drives Coming in June at Rivian Spaces and Service Centers

Rivian confirmed today that R2 first drives are coming in June at your local Rivian Space or Service Center.

This is separate from the R2 Block Party we covered last week, but it’s the update I think a lot of people have actually been waiting for. June is right around the corner, and personally, I’m excited to finally get behind the wheel for the first time too.

No details yet on how to sign up or how availability will shake out by location, but we’ll update when we know more. Keep an eye on Rivian’s site in the meantime.
