Rivian, the American electric vehicle manufacturer, has officially announced pricing for its 2026 R1T pickup and R1S SUV in the United States. The starting price for the Dual-Motor Standard models of both vehicles is set at $70,990 for the R1T and $76,990 for the R1S.
For those seeking more power, the top-end Tri-Motor variants are priced at $100,990 for the R1T and $106,990 for the R1S. The expected pricing for the Quad-Motor models, which feature four motors (one at each wheel) and are expected to deliver up to 1,025 horsepower, is approximately $115,990 for the R1T and $121,990 for the R1S.
Rivian will also offer a Quad Launch Edition for both vehicles, which includes additional features and costs about $4,000 more. This brings the price to $119,990 for the R1T Launch Edition and $125,990 for the R1S Launch Edition. Deliveries of the Launch Edition are expected to begin in July 2025.
Regarding specifications, the Quad-Motor R1T and R1S are designed to deliver impressive performance. They boast a combined output of 1,025 horsepower and 1,198 lb-ft of torque. Performance figures include a 0–60 mph time of 2.5 seconds for the R1T and 2.6 seconds for the R1S, a quarter-mile time of 10.5 seconds, and a top speed of 130 mph. The estimated EPA range is about 374 miles, or up to 400 miles in Conserve mode, powered by Rivian's Max Pack battery.
In a move that will benefit Rivian owners, the company has adopted Tesla's NACS port on all 2026 vehicles, enabling compatibility with Tesla Superchargers and expanding access to North America's most reliable fast-charging network.
Pricing information for Rivian vehicles in Canada will be announced closer to the launch, which is expected to be in the late summer or early fall. It's also worth noting that prices for most trims have increased by $1,090 compared to the 2025 model year, and the destination and freight charge for 2026 models has risen slightly from $1,800 to $1,895.
However, Rivian has not yet revealed if it will offer a different pricing structure for the Quad-Motor variants compared to the previously announced trims, nor has it confirmed the availability of the US$5,000 Performance Upgrade for the Quad-Motor variants of the R1T and R1S.
