The 2025 Rivian R2. Rivian's more affordable electric SUV bringing adventure capability to a wider audience.
Solid car that does its job competently without exciting me. Ride comfortable, easy to drive. However, interior materials feel a step below the price point and the engine is noisy when pushed. Reliable but not class-leading.
