The Rivian R2 is one of the most important EVs introduced in the past few years. It takes everything that's great about Rivian—its battery and powertrain tech, off-road prowess, and impressive driving dynamics—and shrinks it into a smaller, more affordable package. It's the car that should help the brand reach a more mainstream audience than its much more expensive R1 models ever could. And as our own tests have shown, Rivian pretty much nailed the assignment.
It takes some impressive engineering to create such a car, engineering that's well worth digging into for nerds like us.
