The 2022 Rivian R1T delivers impressive off-road capability, rapid acceleration, and a tech-rich cabin that stands out in the electric pickup segment. Minor quirks with some controls and standard driver-assist features slightly temper the experience, but the overall package remains compelling for adventure-oriented buyers.
