Rivian Introduces Gen 3 Powered Tonneau Cover for R1T

Rivian just dropped a new third-generation powered tonneau cover for the R1T (remember when I called it in September of last year), debuting alongside the California Dune R1 Edition. This version ditches the larger panels from Gen 1 and Gen 2 in favor of smaller slits that roll away behind the Gear Tunnel, which should (hopefully) mean better durability and reliability.

The good news? Rivian has confirmed that a retrofit option will be available for existing owners. No timeline yet, but if you’ve had issues with the previous design, an upgrade could be on the horizon. Stay tuned!

  1. I’m curious if you’ve heard anything about tonneau covers being retrofitted to Gen 1 R1T models ? Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!!!
