Watch out Tesla Model 3, the Rivian R3 subcompact EV is coming soon. Not many details were revealed during the press event earlier this week, but the company did say that this model demonstrates the scalability of their brand across different form factors while continuing to be immediately recognizable.
The R3 will be offered in two battery sizes, with the larger pack achieving over 300 miles of range on a single charge and offer 0-60 mph acceleration in under 3 seconds. As for the pricing, the R2 is expected to start at $45,000 USD, which means the slightly smaller R3 will be priced below that. First deliveries are expected to begin in the second half of 2026.

I have never been more excited to launch new products – R2 and R3 are distinctly Rivian in terms of performance, capability, and usability, yet with pricing that makes them accessible to a lot of people. Our design and engineering teams are extremely focused on driving innovation into not only the product features but also our approach to manufacturing to achieve dramatically lower costs,” said RJ Scaringe, Rivian Founder and CEO.
