    I finally figured out what car the Rivian R3X reminds me of. It's a Lada Niva.
  • @snaipear
    R3X can't come soon enough! 😍
  • @lamsmiley1944
    I think the timeline for the R3 is too far off. They need to bring it forward, five years is a long time.
  • @cyberoptic5757
    It's nice to see Ricky helping with the Fully Charged crew. Thank you for that. It's a good fit.
  • @Hacker4748
    These look like European 70's / 80's cars, but with an American "I don't care, just make it bigger" take on them.
  • @RonEMarks
    The R3 and R3X are the EV styles I have been waiting for!
  • @Skiridr22
    Those R3’s are going to sell like hot cakes, it’s a beautiful truck
  • @23justinmo
    I can’t wait for the R2 D2 😉 They should do Star Wars color theme with a C-3PO voice in the car.
  • @anydaynow01
    The R3X reminds me of an '80s rally car, I hope it's really capable/fun off road. Maybe an R4 can be a "CUV" that's really just a lifted estate car and boxy with a large trunk space like an old Volvo estate. My OCD still want to turn all the headlights 90 degrees though, otherwise great styling! R2 seems like a good Bronco/4d Wrangler rival. An R2T would be amazing, a true small extended (not crew) cab electric pickup that's off road capable and somewhat affordable (we are talking BEVs here!).

    Ricky - a great video shot in challenging surroundings. It is great to have such early visibility of these models. 👏👏
  • @JeanLoupRSmith
    Very impressed by Ricky's ability to keep the presentation going amidst all those people but also kudos to the editor for putting transitions where people likely walk into the frame for a very informative video. Thumbs up guys
  • @CoxJul
    What came next was actually to design and build a load of delivery vans for Amazon etc.
  • @NeilBlanchard
    One of the key things for my family, on the R3 - is rear seat leg and head room. I am looking forward to learning more about the R3!
  • @rolandtb3
    Like the R3X profile, mixed color schemes, offroad lifestyle possibilities. Timing, pricing, range, useful features. One, two, three motors for 4WD vs AWD, V2G/V2L, selectable ride options depending on terrain, roof rack gear and camping options.
  • Excellent work, impressive professionalism and you handled the other folk with good grace.
