    Current Model
    This three-row electric SUV has an EPA-rated range of about 260 to 400 miles, depending on battery and tire size. With 835 hp from four electric motors, the R1S we tested is ridiculously quick and handles with relative agility, though it became tail-happy when driven to its limits around our track.
    The ride is too stiff, electric-motor whine is noticeable at low speeds, and the regenerative braking is too strong, which makes it difficult to drive the SUV smoothly. The interior is uncluttered, but the controls are extremely distracting because almost every task, including adjusting the air vents, is done through the touchscreen. A front trunk adds cargo space. DC fast charging is supposedly capable of a max acceptance rate of 200 kilowatts, but we haven't seen anywhere close to that.

    Rivian is an American startup company just launched an upscale, R1S three-row electric SUV. Starting at $70,000 before the federal tax credit, the R1S is priced like a luxury SUV.
    It gets a claimed 300-400 mile range, depending on various battery sizes. Rivian also claims 0-60 mph acceleration in a brisk 3 seconds, and traction that adjusts to road conditions, useful for snow or off-road excursions. The interior is uncluttered and the seats use synthetic leather. A front trunk adds cargo space. Advanced safety and driver assist systems are standard. Delivery to customers is promised in 2021 for the Launch edition. More conventional versions will be available in early 2022.
