Regular car reviews known for a few things. First of all, because that it is strange, rude and useful that voice. For the second time providing insightful and sometimes profound criticism not only against cars, but also against the societies and social norms that nurture them. This review of the Rivian R1T plenty of the above and thought provoking like the best RCR videos.
See, the main conceit behind Brian’s (aka Mr. Regular) argument is that Rivian wants us to care about what we’re doing to the planet, but by encouraging people to take their Rivians out into the wild, it’s accelerating the destruction of the planet. the nature you want to celebrate and protect. This not only makes Rivia itself, but those who buy performance-virtuous granola-crunching, Patagonia-wearing, rich nerds.
He also seems very fond of the R1T as a truck, oblivious to any social connotations. That makes sense, because at the end of the day, it’s a well-considered, attractive and powerful EV that works hard to justify its hefty price tag, especially with RCR drives in the four-motor configuration.
So, I’m curious. Do you agree with RCR about the inherent hypocrisy of building an electric car for the environment but then asking people to go and drive it all over M?another Nwith him? Are you even interested? Let me know in the comments.
