    I think Rivian looks the opposite of mean,tough or menacing.

    It looks like a friendly robot face.

    R1S 7 seater will not be offering the larger capacity battery (180kwh battery).
    Only the 5 seater R1S will have the option for the 180 kWh battery.

    Towing a restored vintage 27’ Airstream (4-4500 pounds) with RS1? Tow mode? Anti-Sway technology? Trailer braking?

    I don't recall Rivian talking about these features specifically, but since it is supposed to have significant towing capability, I have to imagine it will have some of these features. One thing it won't need, of course, is a heavy-duty transmission cooler, though it would still be interesting to hear how they will deal with increased heat inside gearboxes during towing.

    I'll try to keep an eye out for more specific info about this.
