The Rivian R1S Takes 3-Row SUVs Out of Bounds, Where Fun Begins (POV Drive Review)

[@PlxyBxiNxrcy]

the way this man has come and has driven a lot of cars we all want, is just phenomenal. proud of this man fr

[@MilesPerHr]

Thank you for the support!

[@eddstarr2185]

OK, this is the one everyone's been waiting for. Just imagine the impact the R1S would have made if it had been released ahead of the R1T. Shorter wheelbase, 3-row seating, covered cargo area and less overall length with better approach/departure angles. Specs and features put the R1S right in the "Goldilocks Zone" - juusst right! Awesome review, Miles. 👍👍

[@MilesPerHr]

I agree that Rivian should have led with this, Edd. The market's appetite for SUVs and the darling appeal of an EV coalesce for the right product at a prime time. The R1S is still relatively early to the segment, but rather than going after truck buyers, Rivian could have attacked a bigger segment.

[@RepublicOfGarcia]

Love how you give full, clear and detailed review of R1S. Im a preorder holder.

[@Kulric]

Best demo of the the third row space I have seen. Clever using the split seats to show the difference in the second row position.

[@Aschoolbusandsimulatorfan2219]

My very first electric SUV! Great job Miles.

[@scottthompson5518]

R1T definitely looks like a traditional SUV with the blocky design vs curved design via Tesla & Mercedes. Not sure if I prefer it tho just because this shape is not as aerodynamic as Model X, and when dealing with these heavier EVs, efficiency is pretty important. Either way, glad to see more offerings from other brands in this segment as some people will want a traditional SUV design but electrified.

[@resalgamer116]

Its better than petrol SUVs Even though I like petrol more than electric but its cool

[@Cr5pt0Puzzl3B0x]

Just incase no one’s told you today, I sincerely appreciate your videos. Such eye candy

[@youtubecarspottersguide1]

like it , short wheel base over the R1T ute , just wish it had a 2 row opt .for us who have no need , want ,or will ever use a 3rd row . I want cargo space , payload and towing id buy this over the gm ev SUV

[@kevinh8857]

13:47 has the best ev acceleration

[@toronado455]

wow I didn't think these were being produced yet.

[@NoName-fo6ps]

Rivian owns the electric car industry over Tesla in my opinion. I dislike electric cars but I make the expectation to Rivian.

[@HectorPerez]

Great review of the Rivian R1S, MPH.

[@gothops154]

Give me this with a big beautiful Chevy 5.3 and I’m sold

[@abdulrehmankhan6465]

I think Rivian just rekt the competition with looks practicality and powertrain

[@HobbesWiilTakeGoodCareOfYou]

To me it looks just like a Jeep Grand Wagoneer. And quite frankly I'd choose one of those over this any day

[@frix57]

A super great, comprehensive review. I would really like to see your review of the Ford Explorer EV that should release in the USA - I hope by the end of this year.

[@arya_moghadam]

Rather shocked I don’t see many of them on the road comparing to the R1T. I’ve seen only two so far. But have seen many R1Ts.

[@charles_.l]

They only came out a month or so ago. R1Ts have been out for close to a year.

[@arya_moghadam]

@@charles_.l Ah gotchu, that’s good to know

[@MilesPerHr]

Still early - we'll see a lot more soon

[@williamelkington5430]

Very good review. Thanks!

[@SHAAD-h1s]

I was in love with the car until I heard no apple car play like why are people still making cars with no apple car play 😭😭

[@mcnillerandsons7906]

Man this video got me hyped up for delivery Oct-Dec 23 edit: got delayed to June of 2024… no longer hyped…

Really cool vehicle, just wished it had a bit better range

[@charles_.l]

Really cool vehicle, just wished it had a bit better horsepower

[@ENTERANAME-d9m]

HOW DO YOU GET BETTER RANGE that range is good

[@ACA_Allertor]

That's kind of cool but I just wish it had a better mileage

[@MilesPerHr]

Yea, 835hp isn't enough...

[@ENTERANAME-d9m]

@@MilesPerHr how 835hp is pretty good especially on a suv.

[@WilliamKShank]

Nice vehicle. I wish the screens had some color variations to choose from as I feel the all white is to much. Is there a night mode at least? Safe Journey! CHOLULA!!!

[@MilesPerHr]

Yes, the night mode goes black to be easier on the eyes

[@driversanonymousNYC]

very cool!

[@veervithalani]

Where is this off-road trail?

[@quantum_ocean]

When compared to the Rivian R1T, the Tesla Cybertruck's aerodynamic simulation produces a substantially poorer drag coefficient.

[@WithAzamiTortoise]

The exterior of the Rivian looks very similar like a Jeep Wagoneer 2022

[@meltdownshark8812]

Please do R1T

[@MilesPerHr]

Already done! kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKvKdWlrfrubipY

[@turbokuo1734]

They made a significant software update to the suspension, can you make a new video.

[@Тима-ж9у]

Извините что не по теме. Но я только сейчас узнал, что Вы и "Mobile Mama" муж и жена?!😍

[@nathanerickson5703]

One question: how do you cancel the turn signal given the stock returns to the neutral position on its own?

[@MilesPerHr]

You tap it down again

[@nathanerickson5703]

@@MilesPerHr Thank you!

[@benfriedman5916]

Model X is nearly half the price you quoted. Even the plaid version is only $86k (USD to be clear)

[@beyondcleon]

Driving the R1S made me strongly reconsider getting the R1T instead. The R1T felt alot more enjoyable to drive.

[@Thebusdriverandgamermorefan790]

I like this & consider buy Rivian R1S EV SUV.

[@losequis7682]

That ride looks rough. Got seasick watching video. Got an answer why EVs typically don’t have HUDs??

[@jackchn23]

Do all the R1S have glass roofs? I’d prefer a metal one.

[@beyondcleon]

All have glass

[@antlee1579]

Let's see the missing grab handle to help with entry and no way to turn off the brake regeneration and yes ditch the 3rd row maybe replaced with additional batteries. Self inflation/deflation tires? No rear steering tires and how about cold temperatures effective on batteries and how deep of water is acceptable for this ev. I hate the headlights , but that's a minor problem compared to the rest of my complaints. A diesel generator option would be @#@@@

[@dylanchalmers3011]

@MilesPerHr the front end i do know is controversial

[@hmm-bw4pg]

Yeah it powerfull and all....but it is soul-less...it has the torque fun but not the V8 noise which connects you with the car. Its very nice for a utility vehicles tho...

[@cheddarplays3729]

on the bottom side of the second row climate control, there is another dc plug

[@Mr_X010]

Looks more like an electric grand wagoneer

[@Omid786.]

Idk it looks like small wagoneer

[@MilesPerHr]

Nah, having just spent a week with the Wagoneer, it definitely looks better in person

[@mhsohel47]

Just say floaty not rocky

[@tpcthepatrickchannelOFFICIAL]

Model X looks better. But for Off-Roading, camping, and 3 row seating for a trip is better on the Rivian R1S.

[@mimidotcat]

The model x looking better is rather debatable

[@Yoann.B81]

It does not look better than the Rivian...
