What it is

The 2026 Rivian R1T Dual Max (22in) is a Rivian electric pickup in the Standard Pickup Trucks 4WD class. It uses part-time 4-Wheel Drive, an automatic transmission, and a 264 kW ACPM electric engine.

Its defining EPA figure is a 420-mile range. That is the estimated distance on a full charge under the EPA test cycle.

The numbers

EPA rates this R1T at 87 combined MPGe. It uses 38.84 kWh of electricity per 100 miles.

A 240-volt charge takes 15 hours. The vehicle runs on electricity rather than gasoline, so its distance figure is measured per charge.

What it costs to run

EPA lists annual fuel cost at $850. That estimate reflects the truck's electricity use and the EPA's standard driving assumptions.

The 38.84-kWh-per-100-miles figure shows how much energy each 100 miles requires. Your electricity rate and driving pattern can change the bill.

How it compares

For side-by-side shopping, line up its 420-mile EPA range and 87 combined MPGe with other electric pickup trucks.

You can also place the range beside other entries in electric cars by range or review the brand's other models in Rivian cars.

Who it suits

This truck suits a buyer who wants an electric pickup and places a high value on long EPA range between charges.

Its standard pickup body and part-time 4WD fit someone shopping in the 4WD pickup class, provided a 15-hour 240-volt charge is workable.

Trade-offs

The 420-mile range reduces charging stops, but a full 240-volt charge is listed at 15 hours. Energy use is 38.84 kWh per 100 miles.

Part-time 4-Wheel Drive and the Standard Pickup Trucks 4WD classification define its drivetrain choice. The EPA annual fuel estimate is $850, not a purchase price.

Verdict

Choose the R1T Dual Max (22in) if an electric pickup with a 420-mile EPA range matches your regular driving. The 87 MPGe combined rating and $850 annual fuel estimate give you clear operating figures, while the 15-hour 240-volt charge requires planning. Its part-time 4WD layout keeps it in the 4WD pickup group, so compare those range and charging numbers with the other trucks you are considering.
