I know, I know, it's Rivian. Not Cybertruck. But I would fully expect my Cybertruck to handle this same climb. I'm not sure I will be able to handle it as the driver.... But I expect my CT to do everything I can handle and a whole lot more.

It appears to be capable of serious off-roading.
Rivian's founder and CEO RJ Scaringe just teased another video of an amazingly steep climb of the Rivian R1S somewhere in Moab.

This all-electric, 7-seat model is capable of handling off-roading thanks to a very sophisticated quad-motor all-wheel-drive system and of course proper clearance.



It looks like it wasn't even difficult and the best thing is that the climb was conducted smoothly, without engine noise, and just a bit of tire spin to grab traction.

The R1S is expected to offer 300+ miles (483+ km) of range. There will be also a more affordable 250+ mile (402+ km) version.

Unfortunately, just like in the case of Rivian R1T, the R1S is delayed. The R1T will enter the market in September, while the R1S to follow shortly thereafter.

Not that is what I am talkin' about! Nice calm drive. No loud engine noises. Smooth climb. And electronics to automatically get the traction right instead of me having to feather the throttle just right. Beautiful.

I want my CT!!!
