It is, atleast on the outside for some people, but on the inside it is mystifyingly cramped. For instance, there is 36 inches of legroom in the 2nd row. Something like a tahoe has around 42-44..
As current EV SUV on the market, R1S has more cabin space than every existing EV out there, especially the popular Model Y and Model X. Even more cabin space than EQS SUV. To me R1S is Swiss Army of every use case.
- Able to fold down all seats to make it use like truck flat bed for cargo loading.
- Auto leveling for camping flat bed inside car. (Don’t need to be like Jeep Wrangler bring shovel and leveler)
- Popular overlanding gears support like Jeep.
- Spacious frunk just like F150 Lightning and Lucid Air for ample storage.
- People mover. 2nd row compromises with 3rd row.
- Entertainment hub. 9 hotspot device connections and 8 USBC ports for kids.
- 5 off-road modes for rally, drifting, rock climbing and water fording etc etc.
- Quad motors for torque vectoring do some stunning donut (no tank soon yet), snow starving mode.
- Huge long glass roof top for star glazing and airy feel.
- 4 camera view and overhead view can run at all speed with constant dash cam and surveillance cam.
- Bells & whistles of torchlights, camp lantern/speaker, air compressor and 1500 watt AC output.
- Sports crouching mode quad motors yields 0-60mph in 3.1 sec for this 7100 lb beast.
R1S may not have cabin refinement, space, ultra luxury feel, driver dynamic and aesthetic dashboard of upcoming Gravity; but it is currently best SUV out there to beat any ICE/EV SUV and it is Swiss Army knife of every vehicle imo. And its early reservationist adopters really lucked out to get all those features at impossible $76k relative to overall cost.
