It would be a challenging task for the towing companies to rescue this truck, but it’s not impossible.
However, they have been denying the job due to liability concerns.
The Rivian R1T weighs around 7,200 pounds, and there are certain complications regarding its belly-mounted battery tray.
As a result, forceful rescue of the vehicle might not only lead to unnecessary damage to the battery but could also lead to fire.
It boasts impressive specs like over 800 horsepower, capable of reaching speeds of up to 0-60 mph in just 3 seconds.
With remarkable torque and four electric motors – one for each wheel, it’s designed to tackle tough terrain with ease.
Looks like you buy these trucks for sealed road use only (good for shopping centre car park duels ...maybe)
