The Rivian R1T Has A Very Unique Interior

The Rivian R1T electric pickup is one of the first in its growing segment to actually hit the market, with deliveries starting within the next few months. The example shown features the Adventure Package, which is a few thousand dollars more expensive than the base Explore Package.

The Adventure Package includes vegan leather seating, genuine ash wood accents, and a headliner made of recycled microfiber. The ventilated front seats are eight-way power adjustable with four-way lumbar support, while both the front and rear seats are heated. The steering wheel is also power adjustable and heated. We can already tell that the R1T will definitely warm up the occupants on a cold winter day.

An abundance of secret storage compartments are hidden throughout the cabin, including a large cubby beneath the infotainment system, as well as pullout bins under the front seats and a 33-inch wide pullout sitting under the rear seats. This bin also features removable dividers to separate certain items. Another hidden secret inside the R1T is a flashlight that is found in the door, and can be recharged whenever it is needed.

The 16-inch infotainment system gives the driver the ability to control where the HVAC aims to by dragging the airflow icons, as well as a small 6.5-inch display behind the center console for rear passengers. This unique convenience is powered by air-vectoring technology and eight electric motors. Additionally, there are four foldable cup holders inside, as well as noise reduction and background echo cancellation that will refine the ride and phone call quality.

The Rivian R1T’s 18-speaker Meridian audio system is said to be “specifically developed around the shape and materials in the R1T cabin.” But that isn’t the coolest thing about this truck’s audio system. The R1T offers a Camp Speaker, which can be connected to your smartphone, and is removable from its housing in the center console and can even pick up wherever you left off when the play button is pressed. The Camp Speaker can be brought outside of the truck for a more comfortable camping trip, and can also act as a lantern. The cherry on top is the fact that the Camp Speaker automatically charges in the center console when it is not turned on.

Rivian packed the R1T with essential technology and convenience features, so of course it has six USB ports and a 110V power outlet. Besides that, there is a wireless phone charger on the center console, and it can charge two phones at a time. The large panoramic sunroof has the ability to block 99.9% of UV rays, too. If you frequently go on off-reading adventures in your Rivian and want to be prepared for any situation, a 130-piece Field Kit can be opted for, and it includes almost anything, like a blanket and even a retractable shovel.
