Rivian R2 pricing confirmed: base $45k still planned, but most buyers will pay much more
Rivian confirmed the R2 lineup with the first model, the dual-motor Performance, starting at $59,485 and deliveries beginning spring 2026; a Premium trim starts at $55,485 in late 2026, followed by a Long Range Standard at $49,985 arriving early 2027, while the much-anticipated $45k base version is still planned for late 2027 but will cost about $46,495 after destination, meaning many buyers will pay well above the aspirational starting price.
