I put a day one reservation in on a Rivian R2, I've been told I'm free to place my order, but I'm struggling to justify the $61k price tag (before TT&L). As much as I love the R2, I've driven small sedans for the better part of two decades now (currently in an Audi S3), and think the i4 might be a better fit. Ideally if I could find a lightly used M50 (would consider an e/xDrive40) for $45-50k, that'd still save me $10-15k over the R2. Not sure if anyone here has seen the reports of the R2 highway range being 20-30% lower than the EPA estimates. What is your real world experience with range compared to what BMW publishes?
