The Lightning is the 10th-best-selling EV in California and the Rivian R1T is not even in the top 25. Rivian is also one of the handful of brands selling fewer vehicles so far in 2025 compared to 2024.
- NewJazz 11mo agoYeah but the R1S is a better pavement princess anyway, and that does sell well. I guess Mach-E beats even the R1S but they're not really the same kind of car. Ioniq 5 beats Mach E in CA, as does the MY.
- jeffbee 11mo agoI don't think the R1S and the F-150 should be compared because, on account of being registered as a commercial vehicle, the F-150 has noticeably higher operating costs.
- throwaway-11-1 11mo agomy buddy sent me a video of him crawling some seriously sketchy trails in an R1T, I wouldn't describe those trucks as being "pavement princesses" or whatever
- NewJazz 11mo agoThat's the point of the term pavement princess. They can be used in the way you describe. What makes them pavement princesses is that they aren't used in that way.
