First Rivian R1T Review Calls It World's Most Remarkable Pickup
It's truly that good.
Very few journalists have thus far been given the chance to drive the very exciting new Rivian R1T electric pickup truck, one of the year’s most anticipated new EVs. Deliveries are set to kick off soon (after having been postponed), but right now there’s still a lot of mystery shrouding this model because it has yet to be driven by journalists who specialize in electric vehicles for in-depth testing.
But even as non-specialists in the field of electric vehicles, the guys from MotorTrend, who were given privileged access to the R1T, were left very impressed by the experience. Their conclusion after the exclusive drive was that the R1T is really good and that it excels in many areas (it's apparently quite good to drive on-road), even though the vehicle that they got to drive was still a pre-production example, so it still wasn’t final.
