Rivian Quietly Retires the Dual Standard R1T & R1S—Here’s What’s Next

Rivian Quietly Retires the Dual Standard R1T & R1S—Here’s What’s Next

If you logged onto Rivian’s configurator today, you’re in for a massive piece of sticker shock. Overnight—and without a single press release—Rivian quietly discontinued the absolute cheapest entry points into the R1T and R1S lineup. The Dual Standard trim is officially dead, raising the barrier to entry by a massive $7,000.

In this episode, we go beneath the surface to break down the real reasons behind the shift. We dive into the secret technical nightmare of LFP battery calibration that plagued the base models, and why this is a genius tactical chess move by CEO RJ Scaringe to save the upcoming, mass-market Rivian R2 from internal product cannibalization.
