2026 Rivian R2

The Rivian R2 is a two-row, five-passenger all-electric SUV that’s smaller than its R1S sibling. Sized like a Honda CR-V, the R2 will be available in single-, dual-, and tri-motor applications, with the latter two giving the SUV all-wheel drive. While battery and motor specs haven't been released, the automaker says all versions will be able to go at least 300 miles on a full charge. The R2 will come standard with a NACS charging port, and it can be charged with a CCS coupler using an adaptor. Like its larger siblings, the R2's interior is dominated by a large center touchscreen, with a smaller instrument panel used for speed, selected gear, and other data. The R2 features a few tricks, such as the ability to fold both the front and rear seats flat for no-tent camping, along with a rear window that lowers into the tailgate for better airflow or to carry long items without using a roof rack. Reservations can be placed now, with deliveries expected to begin in mid-2026.
