A company spokesperson confirmed to “Auto Express” that the brand will enter several European markets, and that the new R2, which follows the R1 S SUV and the R1 T pickup truck, which have been in production since 2022, is a more suitable model as it is a smaller SUV than the seven-seater R1 S.
The American brand has now revealed a teaser of the new model, showing that it will feature headlights with a vertical design connected by a light bar that spans the entire front of the SUV, suggesting that this new Rivian model may be a compact version of the R1S.
