Rivian R1T: charging cost vs gas
We've set the Rivian R1T as your EV below. Pick the gas car you'd compare against, set your prices and miles, and see the real cost difference — and the break-even.
Efficiency 2 mi/kWh
EPA range 320 mi
From ~$70,000
Typical gas rival 19 mpg
The R1T is a capable electric adventure truck at ~2 mi/kWh. Like other trucks it's not hyper-efficient, but it's up against ~19 mpg gas pickups, so home charging still beats gas comfortably on cost per mile.
Off-roading, big tires and towing all cut efficiency; a worked truck narrows the gap. As a daily driver on home charging, the fuel savings against a gas pickup are real.
What to keep in mind
- Beats ~19 mpg gas trucks per mile when charged at home.
- Towing, off-roading and big tires reduce efficiency.
- Premium price needs truck-level mileage to pay back.
