🌍✨ Rivian R2 uses up to 26% more energy than Model Y in real-world test
Why we’re watching: Out of Spec Reviews put a Rivian R2 Performance and a Tesla Model Y Performance on the same roads on the same afternoon.
The R2 used 18% to 26% more energy at every single speed they tested. 💚
That’s awkward, because the two SUVs carry identical EPA efficiency ratings, and Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe has been telling media the R2 matches the Model Y.
