This is a repost of my response on the topic, which I thought was worth a new topic.

Beta Phase……Rivian

it was a real life adventure series called LONG WAY UP. Number three on Ewan McGregor‘s motorcycle adventures series. An AppleTV Series staring “Star-wars” Ewan McGregor. Great watch if you are a motorcycle long distance rider. Very educational about the World we live in…highly recommend. Ewan and his buddies rode Harley Davidson first venture into electric motorcycles from the southern tip of South America to LA. Their support. vehicles were Rivian trucks. After watching it I had second thoughts about owning any electric vehicle….probably why it isn’t in any Rivian or Harley sales brochure.

Note: Their discussion in the first two episodes about Zero are about 90% wrong. Zero is cheaper, lighter, longer range, and has higher capacity AC chargers than Livewire.

(Livewire does beat them in performance and has DC charging, which they wouldn't use until they got to the US.)
