Rivian R2 Specs Leaked: $47,000 Starting Price, 330-Mile Range, 2026 Launch Date

Rivian has only been selling trucks and SUVs since 2021 and it's already preparing to launch its third new vehicle, the more affordable R2. The baby electric SUV will officially be unveiled in just a couple of days, on March 7, but internet sleuths uncovered some of its specs and pricing ahead of time. If these leaks are accurate, the Rivian R2 will be among the cheapest EV SUVs on the market, with a starting price of $47,000.

These leaks come from X/Twitter user Chris Hilbert, who used Web Inspector to look at the HTML code of the Rivian R2's website. Looking at the source code, you can see the values for different parts of the site's R2 page, which shows off some of Rivian's headline specs.

According to the info contained in the HTML, the Rivian R2 will go on sale in 2026 and its estimated range should be 330 miles, but that's likely not for the $47,000 model. Expect the 330-mile range to be for the top-spec SUV with the big battery. Whatever that top-spec model is should also be able to get from 0-60 mph in three seconds flat, though no horsepower or torque figures were shown in the leaks. However, that would make it as fast as the quad-motor R1S, so the R2 could get a quad-motor setup as well.
