R1T vs R1S — pick the right Rivian
The R1T is the adventure pickup; the R1S is the three-row SUV. They share platforms but price differently by pack size, motor count, and mileage. Compare within the same body style when reading Deal Scores.
Battery pack and motor matter
Quad Motor, Max Pack, and Dual Motor configurations change range and price significantly. Make sure your comparison set matches the trim you are actually buying.
