RIVIAN R1T QUAD MOTOR - DRIVING THE 835HP ADVENTURE PICKUP

EV Channels Review

The Rivian R1T Quad Motor is presented as an "adventure pickup" with an impressive 835 horsepower, delivering alarming acceleration that redefines expectations for electric trucks. The reviewer highlights its comfortable ride, aided by air suspension, and practical features like the frunk, power outlets, and an integrated air compressor. While praising the cohesive driving platform and build quality, which is deemed a step above Tesla's, the reviewer expresses significant frustration with the over-reliance on the infotainment screen for essential controls like steering wheel and mirror adjustments, deeming it potentially dangerous. Despite this major drawback, the R1T is lauded for its seamless infotainment interface, capable off-road performance including a "tank turn" capability, and its dual appeal as both a modern EV and a functional pickup truck.
