2025 Rivian R1T And R1S Revealed With 1,025 HP
They don’t look new, but the Rivian R1T pickup and R1S SUV have been updated for 2025 with new powertrains, batteries and driver aid technology.
The models now feature Rivian-designed electric motors that deliver up to 1,025 hp in quad-motor models.
The setup also provides 1,198 lb-ft of torque in a launch mode that can accelerate the vehicles to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds.
That makes them the quickest and most powerful electric pickup and SUV on sale today.
A tri-motor powertrain with 850 hp and a dual motor version with either 665 hp or 553 hp are also avaialble.
The available lithium-ion battery packs have been re-engineered to be more energy dense with the Large and Max packs providing 330 miles and 420 miles of range in the dual-motor models.
An entry level Adventure trim with a lithium iron phosphate-based battery is rated at 270 miles of range with the 533 hp and is priced at $69,900 for an R1T and $75,900 for an R1S, not including delivery fees. That qualifies both models for the full $7,5000 federal tax credit.
Rivian has also upgraded its software platform with more powerful ECUs and has launched a new standard Rivian Autonomy Platform with 11 cameras, five radars, and “AI prediction technology” that enables blind spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control. A Rivian Autonomy Platform+ with Lane Change on Command and a future Enhanced Highway Assistant is also offered.
A full glass panoramic roof with a photovoltaic dimming system is available on upper trims.
The 2025 Rivian R1S has already started shipping and the R1T will follow it later this summer.
