Here's why Rivian canceled its viral 'Tank Turn' feature.
While the "Tank Turn" itself clearly worked effectively in the video, the clip also gives a fairly good idea of how much damage a 7000-lb truck can do to a trail as it spins in place. As the overhead camera angle shows, the R1T effectively becomes a boring device digging a divot into the dirt below. That could seriously damage trails over time by producing new crater-like ruts, which would, obviously, go against the environmental goals behind a go-anywhere electric truck.
While the R1S and R1T may not be able to turn in place at high speeds, they are actually available for purchase. That, at least, puts them well ahead of the Cybertruck they were so often compared against when all three products were revealed in pre-production.
