The Rivian R1T’s quad-motor powertrain gives the electric pickup increased maneuverability over various terrains, a fact that’s best highlighted by the truck's factory-fit Drive Modes.
Rivian has released a new video that showcases each of the eight drive modes available on the R1T—four for the road and four for when the road ends. While we get to see the R1T's behavior in each of the drive modes, we also get detailed information about the settings corresponding to each drive mode.
The video starts with the Rivian R1T driving fast on a track in Sport mode—not what you'd usually expect from a pickup truck. Still, the vehicle in the video is an 835-hp, quad motor R1T, so why not?
