Rivian R1S Max: what to know
The 2025 Rivian R1S Max is a 7-seat three-row SUV with an EPA range of 410 mi from a 141 kWh battery, starting at $105,900 MSRP.
DC fast charging peaks at 220 kW but a 10–80% top-up takes around 41 minutes, so this is happiest as a home-charged daily driver rather than a frequent road-tripper.
It uses 49 kWh per 100 miles, so at the US-average home rate of $0.16/kWh it costs about 7.8¢ per mile to fuel — roughly $1,019 a year at 13,000 miles.
Rivian R1S Max Towing Capacity
- Max towing capacity
- 7,700 lb
- Tow package
- Standard equipment
- Range towing near max (est.)
- ~205 mi (≈50% loss)
The 2025 Rivian R1S Max is rated to tow up to 7,700 lb — enough for a midsize travel trailer, a loaded open car hauler, or a fishing/wakeboard boat on a tandem-axle trailer. The hitch and tow tech are standard equipment, so the full rating is available without an upcharge.
Expect a real-world range hit when you actually hook up a trailer near that rating: independent road tests of EVs in this class consistently land around a 50% reduction at or near max tow, which would drop the Rivian R1S Max's 410 mi EPA range to roughly 205 mi of usable range between charges.
Plan DC-fast-charge stops more frequently than you would unloaded — 220 kW peak helps, but heavy trailers also tax thermal limits, and pull-through stalls remain rare on most networks.
Towing capacity from the manufacturer. Range-loss figures marked “est.” are estimates based on corroborated third-party road tests at or near max tow; real-world results vary with trailer aero, grade, speed, and weather.
