Rivian has increased the price of their Cargo Crossbars. The Silver variant now costs $700, up from $650, and the Dark variant has jumped to $800.
These crossbars are designed to fit seamlessly with the R1T and R1S, perfect for carrying bikes, tents, and more. While Rivian hasn’t explained the price hike, it could be due to material or production costs.
