Rivian Introduces $100K Tri Max Variant Of R1S Electric SUV On Online Shop Which Can Go from 0-60 MPH In 3s

California-based EV startup Rivian Automotive RIVN has added the “Tri Max” version of its R1S SUV, priced at about $100,000, to its online shop.

What Happened: “R1S Tri is here to elevate every adventure,” the company wrote in a post on social media platform X. The R1S Ascend Tri Max is a pricier version of the R1S SUV which starts at $105,900. The cheapest variant of the R1S SUV, in comparison, starts at $75,900.

Unlike the cheaper dual-motor variants of the vehicle, the Tri Max variant can touch 60 mph from rest in less than 3 seconds, thanks to the two motors in the rear and one in front. The vehicle can deliver 850 hp power and an estimated range of 371 miles.

Why It Matters: Rivian is yet to add the Tri Max variant of its R1T truck to its inventory. The R1T Tri Max variant starts at $99,990, significantly higher priced than the cheapest variant which starts at just $69,900.

Rivian currently makes only the R1T and the R1S. Its R2 SUV, priced at around $45,000, is slated to start production in the first half of 2026.
