How Rivian Structures the R1S Lineup
The 2026 Rivian R1S is available in 5 trims: Dual Standard, Dual, Tri, Quad, Quad Launch Edition. The Dual Standard is the entry point, and the Quad Launch Edition sits at the top of the range. All trims share the same platform and core engineering. What changes between them is features, comfort, and in some cases wheels and appearance.
Adjacent trims usually differ in tech and convenience features. Bigger jumps often include powertrain or capability changes. If you're still deciding between models, see the full Rivian hub. If you're not sure which trim level to target, our how to pick a trim guide and packages vs. trims breakdown can help.
