Rivian Will Unveil New R2 on March 7th

•    Rivian confirms March 7 for the presentation of its newest model, the R2.

The week of March 4 promises to be a busy one. Just after Dodge announced it will unveil the production version of the 2025 Charger on March 5, Rivian confirmed today it will present its latest new model, the R2 SUV, on March 7. 

The manufacturer confirmed the date on X (formerly Twitter). No need to rush to the Rivian website to order an R2, however - the model won't see the light of day for another two years. 

The company is sticking to the plan it announced last year regarding the model's presentation. Back in June 2023, company CEO Claire McDonough said the R2 would appear in early 2024. The firm is targeting a price of between $40,000 and $60,000 USD for the SUV, which will make it much more accessible.

The base version of the R1S, already on the market, costs $78,000 USD.
