Rivian’s smaller R2 electric SUV detailed in website slipup


It looks like the next-gen vehicle will have 330 miles of range and a roughly $47,000 starting price when it’s revealed Thursday.

Ahead of its launch on March 7th, key specs for Rivian’s upcoming R2 electric SUV were briefly visible via the source code on the company’s teaser site, Electrek reports. Electrek notes that other specs revealed in the website’s code include support for both NACS and CCS charging stations, “powered rear glass,” and a front trunk that’s big enough to store the SUV’s bike mount system when not in use. Otherwise, you can expect the new R2 SUV to maintain the signature oval lights of Rivian’s existing vehicles, judging from a recent teaser trailer, but we’ll have to wait for March 7th for a full reveal.
