hey guys it's justine and behind me is
[2]
the brand new rivien r1s and this is the
[5]
suv version of the rivian you guys may
[7]
have seen some of the trucks but this
[9]
thing is so awesome
[12]
and did you hear that it sounds like a
[13]
little chirp my sister and i got a
[15]
chance to test this out and we're
[16]
actually in yosemite right now driving
[18]
this around testing it my sister has
[20]
definitely been doing more of the
[21]
driving than i have but this has been so
[23]
much fun so let's hop in and let's chat
[25]
about it
[26]
so great
[29]
[Music]
[42]
so now that we're gonna be hopping in we
[44]
have two options with us right now we
[45]
actually have the little key fob which
[48]
is like a little carabiner and this is
[50]
amazing because you can just hook this
[51]
on to
[52]
your belt your backpack whatever and
[55]
there's also the key card you can use
[56]
your phone and rivien also has a few
[58]
other options too they even have like a
[60]
wristband that allows you to unlock this
[62]
but we basically have been using the
[63]
phone pretty much for the entire trip
[65]
but since we have the key fob let's
[67]
unlock
[69]
and chat about this incredible suv oh
[71]
it's so amazing
[74]
oh
[74]
the heated seats are on too so now that
[77]
we're inside this thing is so spacious
[80]
and that was one of the things i was
[81]
most excited about because on our
[84]
impromptu trip here we went with our
[86]
parents i'm just gonna be honest i pack
[88]
a lot no matter what i'm going for or
[91]
where the amount of gear the amount of
[92]
clothes the amount of things that i pack
[94]
it's excessive and add in three other
[96]
people we were able to fit so much in
[98]
this it was absolutely shocking about to
[100]
load up the rivian let's go
[104]
[Music]
[118]
i love that this has a frunk of course
[120]
since there's no engine in the front
[122]
like most vehicles you're able to store
[123]
so much in there and it even has an
[125]
emergency lock which we did test if you
[128]
happen to find yourself inside of the
[130]
franc there is a little release where
[131]
you can press a button and you'll be
[132]
able to get out which is an incredible
[134]
safety feature i don't recommend doing
[136]
that and rivien also doesn't recommend
[137]
doing that but the fact that that
[139]
feature is there i think is very very
[140]
important something else about the front
[142]
that's really cool is you can actually
[144]
use it as a cooler there's a little plug
[146]
that you can unplug to be able to let
[148]
out water if you did put ice in there so
[151]
this really is one of those vehicles
[153]
that you can kind of make whatever you
[154]
need it to be like if you need your
[156]
frunk to be a cooler you can do that
[158]
this does have seven seats in it and for
[160]
our configuration that we have right now
[161]
on the road trip we put the last two
[163]
seats back and those folded down and
[165]
we're able to store all of our luggage
[167]
and everything in the back it also has a
[169]
little secret compartment which you can
[171]
store more stuff in which is so amazing
[174]
like when i say that you can fit a lot
[175]
of stuff in here i am not exaggerating
[177]
now also inside of that little secret
[179]
compartment is a first aid kit and
[181]
there's an air compressor which is
[182]
actually really helpful because if you
[185]
are off-roading or if you're going on a
[187]
beach or sandy conditions or if there's
[188]
dirt and you need to let some air out of
[190]
your tires to kind of make your way
[192]
through whatever it is that you're
[194]
trying to get through and then once
[195]
you're out you need to add the air and
[197]
you're in the middle of nowhere how do
[199]
you do that well rivian's got you
[201]
covered a built-in air compressor i also
[203]
really like this because i can fill up
[204]
my bike tires when i'm at home
[206]
there's a bike rack accessory my sister
[208]
from the back seat has said actually i
[210]
added that on to my pre-order was the
[211]
bike rack accessory there's even like a
[213]
surfboard accessory there's so many
[215]
other accessories that you can get for
[217]
the rack up top and even a tent they
[220]
have just so many accessories and i
[222]
think that's one of the cool things is
[224]
because we need to also remember that
[226]
this is still very early for rivian
[228]
somebody had sent a tweet that i think
[230]
they were trying to offend me by saying
[232]
vivian just got started there are so
[234]
many other evs that have been around for
[235]
a long time and after driving this
[238]
if this is rivian just getting started
[240]
oh my goodness having this be a
[242]
pre-production model i was definitely
[244]
expecting there to be errors or the
[247]
maybe some laggy software or things not
[249]
working and we have honestly had no
[252]
issues whatsoever and i was really
[254]
surprised by that just knowing how many
[256]
times i've tested a lot of pre-release
[258]
software or pre-release products
[260]
everything has worked so seamless and
[262]
i'm so incredibly impressed so like i
[264]
said if this is the beginning i cannot
[266]
wait to see the future of rivia my
[267]
sister actually pre-ordered one a really
[269]
long time ago and at the time i didn't
[271]
really need to do a car upgrade and i'm
[274]
so jealous because the second that i
[276]
opened up this door when rivian brought
[277]
this over for us i immediately regretted
[280]
not rewarding years ago so the color of
[282]
this is really beautiful they do have a
[284]
bunch of other options that you can
[286]
configure on the website so not only can
[287]
you configure the interior the exterior
[289]
but you can also configure various wheel
[291]
types and this color is the lcap granite
[294]
which is quite fitting because we are
[295]
here in yosemite and we even got some
[298]
video footage of the lcap granite in
[301]
front of el capitan
[304]
this is the launch edition package and
[306]
this has all of the same contents as the
[308]
adventure package so you can choose
[310]
between the two but with the adventure
[311]
package it changes the interior badging
[314]
you have free wheel upgrades and you
[316]
have access to the limited launch green
[318]
exterior color this also has the large
[320]
battery pack which will estimate about
[322]
360 miles of range with the quad motor
[325]
depending upon which wheels you do
[326]
decide it does say on the website some
[328]
of them will give you less range some
[329]
will give you more so depending upon
[331]
what the look is that you're going for
[333]
or what you plan on doing with the car
[334]
that will depend how much range you'll
[335]
get these are the 22-inch sport wheels
[339]
bright they partnered with pirelli to
[341]
develop these specifically for their
[342]
vehicles and their unique capabilities
[345]
so the current package that i'm sitting
[346]
in right now runs about 95 000 this is
[349]
the adventure quad motor large pack lcap
[352]
granite 22 inch bright wheels with the
[354]
black mountain interior and it has the
[355]
tow hooks you can go zero to 60 in three
[358]
seconds and did we test that yep you
[360]
better believe it then straighten it out
[362]
yep hold on straighten out again one two
[371]
sexy yeah that felt like it was in zero
[373]
or three seconds and we were also on an
[375]
incline it's also cooled out so the
[376]
battery's not prepped
[378]
this has a towing capacity of seven
[380]
thousand seven hundred pounds it has
[382]
various drive modes there's all-purpose
[384]
sport conserve towing off-road and crawl
[388]
something that is really cool to kind of
[390]
witness which i'll show you guys here in
[391]
a second is the way that you can adjust
[393]
the suspension okay so right now we're
[395]
in the high setting and i'm gonna take
[397]
it down to the low and this is taking us
[399]
down to 10.1 inches
[402]
there's also a highest and lowest
[405]
setting as well
[409]
look at this we're going down
[412]
this has completely changed my shot this
[414]
is great okay i'm gonna go back up dude
[416]
this thing is so
[418]
great i love it it is definitely getting
[420]
dark speaking of getting dark there's
[422]
actually a flashlight right here in
[426]
the side like this is so great like what
[429]
a great idea there's also another fun
[430]
little addition right here under the
[433]
center console and this discharges
[435]
inside of the car which is so awesome
[437]
because you never know when you might
[438]
need to
[439]
have some music out in the wilderness if
[442]
you want it you've got it now since this
[444]
is an suv one of the other things that i
[445]
love is the back hatch now what is
[447]
unique about this is the fact that i've
[449]
seen this in other vehicles too but i
[451]
love that they have this included is
[452]
there's a top and a bottom hatch so if
[455]
you have a bunch of stuff in there and
[457]
you don't want it to go rolling around
[459]
you're able to kind of just open up the
[461]
top and that little bottom half stays
[463]
put so all of your stuff doesn't go
[464]
rolling out and something that has
[466]
really made it easy to put luggage and
[468]
gear in and out of this is you're able
[470]
to adjust this little ramp right here so
[472]
if it's down you can see this little
[473]
ridge right here but if you lift it up
[475]
it's a nice flat and smooth so you can
[477]
put in your gear or rivien recommends
[479]
going out and stargazing and you can be
[481]
super cozy with some blankets the
[483]
panoramic glass roof is so awesome and
[486]
even on our way up here it was really
[488]
hot it was like 115 degrees on the drive
[490]
up and it is uv coated to protect you
[492]
from getting a sunburn and even though
[494]
it was that hot i was actually quite
[495]
surprised because i thought that it
[496]
would have more of an effect on the
[498]
drive up and it really wasn't that bad
[500]
at all i do like that there are air
[502]
conditioned seats in the front and also
[505]
heated seats in the front and the back
[507]
and that does vary between if you get
[508]
the adventure pack or the explorer pack
[510]
it was nice because the model that we
[512]
have does have air conditioned seats in
[513]
the front and it also since like right
[515]
now it's actually quite cold it does
[517]
have heated seats so i've had that on
[518]
and just having like a nice little spa
[520]
day so the entire trip here was really
[522]
fun and i was concerned because
[525]
obviously i think this is a lot of
[526]
concerns that a lot of people have when
[528]
getting an electric vehicle what is the
[529]
charging like it does take a little bit
[531]
of extra planning because you do have to
[533]
map out your route but what is great is
[535]
in the dashboard we're able to put in
[538]
our start and put in our end location
[539]
and it gives you suggestions of where
[541]
you should charge depending upon how
[543]
many charges are along the way and what
[545]
we did is we actually mapped ours a
[547]
little bit differently than what it
[548]
suggested depending upon what we wanted
[550]
to do so we found some cool restaurants
[552]
was able to charge for like an hour and
[553]
a half for lunch all right time to feast
[555]
and then hit the road i am watching the
[557]
charging and then we continued on our
[559]
way and then we had to do a bathroom
[561]
break so we found a walmart and there we
[563]
were able to charge for like another 30
[565]
minutes while we shopped got some things
[567]
for the trip so i've been eating
[568]
popsicles napping i'm having a great
[570]
time over yeah how's your experience as
[572]
a passenger oh you're doing a great job
[574]
keep it up okay dad how's your
[576]
experience great mom great everybody
[579]
having a good time
[581]
and here at the lodge there is actually
[582]
a fast charger so we've been driving
[584]
around all day and coming back and being
[586]
able to charge overnight in the park
[587]
though they do have rivien branded
[589]
chargers so that's pretty great to know
[591]
that that option is there if we need it
[593]
we tested it out and we charged a little
[594]
bit but since the car was pretty much
[596]
charged already we didn't really need to
[597]
spend much time there and it's great
[599]
though because everything is connected
[601]
to the app we could be out and about
[603]
roaming having lunch or doing whatever
[605]
it is that we need to do and can always
[606]
check on it on the app well that's it i
[608]
just wanted to give you guys a quick
[609]
little overview and how awesome it's
[611]
been to test this out i've been a huge
[613]
fan of rivian i've loved the r1t and
[616]
it's been really cool to check out the
[617]
r1s especially here in like adventure
[620]
town everyone has been stopping me and
[622]
my sister and wanting to see it wanting
[624]
to talk about it we've made so many
[625]
friends so if any of you met us along
[627]
the way hi i'm justine and that's jenna
[629]
in the car and pretty sure uh jed and i
[632]
sold a few pre-orders here so rivien you
[634]
know we just we did we did our best
[637]
a huge thank you to rivien though for
[638]
letting us borrow this because this was
[640]
such a fun trip and i have been dying to
[642]
go on a road trip and this was the
[644]
perfect opportunity and it was so much
[646]
fun to get to hang out with my sister
[647]
and my parents there's jenna
[650]
i mean the fact that our parents even
[651]
came along like they extended their trip
[653]
to make this trip happen and since they
[654]
were in the back seat for most of the
[656]
time they were quite comfy back there
[657]
and it's great to just see something
[659]
like this still have so much leg room
[662]
and space if you're in the back seat
[664]
because i know as a back seat passenger
[666]
sometimes it can get a little cramped
[667]
back there and they had a ton of room
[669]
and even in the third row when those
[671]
seats are up there's still a lot of room
[673]
back there there's a lot of room back
[674]
here there's a lot of room
[676]
if anybody questions if there's not
[678]
enough room in the back seat like
[679]
there's a ton of room back here so this
[681]
thing has absolutely exceeded my
[683]
expectations and i am so excited for my
[684]
sister to get one i definitely was
[687]
playing around with pre-orders so i may
[689]
or may not have pre-ordered one as well
[691]
the white just looks so so fresh and all
[694]
the accessories oh my god i'm just i'm
[695]
freaking out okay i'm gonna go because
[697]
the sun is going down and the moon is
[699]
gonna come up and long ago somebody
[701]
probably left with the cup
[703]
if you know you know
[706]
