I built a free tool to compare every R2 trim side by side and estimate real cost of ownership
Use it here: https://r2-configurator.vercel.app
I’ve been getting really excited by the R2 rollout, and after receiving my order-window email, it’s finally starting to feel real. This will be our first EV purchase, so I wanted to understand what the full cost might look like beyond the sticker price.
The Rivian builder is great, but what I really wanted was a way to see every trim side by side on one page. So I built that, then expanded it into a full cost-of-ownership estimator.
I'm in North Carolina, but I added defaults for all 50 states plus DC. Everything is editable, and the project is open source, so if your state's numbers look off or you want to improve something for the community, PRs are very welcome.
Features
- Compare all R2 trims side by side on one page
- Configure any build by itself or as a full comparison: drivetrain/battery, wheels, paint, interior, gear & accessories
- Estimate multi-year cost beyond MSRP: financing, charging, insurance, taxes, fees, and depreciation, with editable local defaults by state
- Share a build as a link, or copy the details into an LLM for a second opinion
- No login and no tracking
Caveats: Some gear isn't available yet, so a few prices are educated guesses. This isn't financial advice, and it isn't affiliated with Rivian. The per-state numbers are based on my best research pass. If yours look off, edit them on the page or submit a PR to fix the default for everyone.
I’d love your feedback, especially anything you'd like to see added. Thanks for taking a look!
