The Rivian R2 is getting launch mode.
It will now be able to sprint from zero-to-60 MPH faster than Rivian's original figure suggested.
Rivian's video shows that even the Tesla Model Y Performance will face some serious speed competition off the line.
Some good news for all of those speed demons planning on getting the Rivian R2 Performance: it's getting quicker.
Rivian's Chief Software Officer, Wassym Bensaid, shared that the R2 is getting lanch mode in its next over-the-air update. And what's better than just telling folks about the new feature? Showing it to them, of course, which Bensaid did by posting a video of an R2 sprinting all the way up to its top speed.
