What is the Rivian R1S?
It's an all-electric SUV made by a start-up in the US. The R1S is the sister car of the pick up, which is called the R1T.
Is the Rivian R1S a seven seater?
Yes, there are three rows of seats giving seven in total.
What is special about the Rivian R1S and R1T?
Quite a lot. There's the sheer size, the clever cubby holes, Porsche-bashing performance and the fact it can spin around like a tank.
When will the Rivian R1S launch in the UK?
Rivian is yet to confirm plans for a European sales network. However, it has big plans, especially for the new, smaller R2. Whether those launch plans extend to creating a right-hand-drive version for UK remains to be seen.
How much will the Rivian R1S cost?
In the US, the Rivian R1S range starts at $67,500, which at current exchange rates is around £56,000. The quad motor model with the larger battery starts at around £68,000 while the range-topping model will set you back around £75,000.
