Rivian R1S

The 2026 Rivian R1S starts at $75,900 for the base trim and runs up to $105,900 for the top trim, across 4 available configurations. These prices are MSRP and exclude destination fee (typically $1,000–$1,500) plus state sales tax and options.

The Rivian R1S offers EPA-estimated range between 270 and 410 miles, depending on trim and wheel size. Real-world highway range at 70 mph is typically 10–15% lower than the EPA rating, and cold-weather range can drop an additional 20–30% in sub-freezing temperatures.

The Rivian R1S hits 0-60 mph in 2.9 to 4.5 seconds depending on trim — the performance variant is the quicker of the two. The top trim is in supercar-acceleration territory thanks to electric motors' instant torque.

On a DC fast charger, the Rivian R1S goes from 10% to 80% in roughly 27–38 minutes. At home on a Level 2 charger (240V), a full charge typically takes 7–11 hours depending on the battery pack size. Level 1 (standard 120V outlet) is impractical for most owners — about 3–5 days for a full charge.

Yes, all Rivian R1S trims come standard with all-wheel drive. Dual-motor (or tri-motor on performance variants) setups deliver improved traction and faster acceleration than comparable RWD EVs.

The Rivian R1S seats 7 across two or three rows depending on configuration. The third row is best suited for kids or short-trip adults — legroom is tight for larger passengers on long drives.

No. The federal Clean Vehicle Credit (IRC §30D) expired on September 30, 2025 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act — no new EVs purchased on or after October 1, 2025 qualify. State incentives remain available: see our /deals page for current rebates in California, Maine, Colorado, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and other states. The Section 30C EV Charger Tax Credit (for home charger installation) remains available through June 30, 2026.

Real-world data from EV fleets suggests modern lithium-ion EV batteries (2020+) retain roughly 85–90% of their original capacity at 100,000 miles and 80–85% at 200,000 miles — comfortably above the 70% State-of-Health threshold most manufacturer battery warranties guarantee. The Rivian R1S comes with a battery warranty (typically 8–10 years / 100,000+ miles) that covers defects and excessive capacity loss during that window.
