As CEO RJ Scaringe describes it: <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\" readability=\"8\">\n<p>The R1S was designed to take families, friends, dogs and all your gear on long road trips to the places you love.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>That doesn\u2019t exactly sound like the type of car you would see competing in the world\u2019s quickest SUV race. However, with four electric motors, the Rivian R1S Quad-Motor all-wheel-drive model packs 835 horsepower and 908 lb-ft of torque, giving way to an impressive 0 to 60 time in as quick as three seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the SUVs Rivian is facing are also known for their speed and performance. The Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT set an SUV lap record at the N\u00fcrburgring in 2021, while the Aston Martin DBX 707 looks to top that. Here\u2019s a quick look at the matchup.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td\/>\n<td>HP<\/td>\n<td>Torque<br \/>(lb-ft)<\/td>\n<td>Weight<\/td>\n<td>Price<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Rivian R1S<\/td>\n<td>835<\/td>\n<td>908<\/td>\n<td>6,970<\/td>\n<td>+$90,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT<\/td>\n<td>631<\/td>\n<td>626<\/td>\n<td>4,980<\/td>\n<td>+$188,700<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Aston Martin DBX 707<\/td>\n<td>697<\/td>\n<td>663<\/td>\n<td>5,130<\/td>\n<td>+$207,680<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Rivian R1S vs Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT vs Aston Martin DBX 707<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As you can see, the Rivian R1S weighs almost 2,000 lbs more than the Porshe and Aston Martin, but has significantly more horsepower and torque.
