As production of the Dual Motor version of the Rivian R1S ramps up, the EPA has published the model’s efficiency ratings and as expected, it has more range than existing Quad Motor versions of the all-electric SUV.

There are no less than six different Dual Motor configurations of the Rivian R1S that shoppers can choose between. The two most efficient are the Dual Motor Large Battery with 21-inch wheels and the Performance Dual Motor Large Battery with 21-inch wheels. Both of these models are rated at 78 MPGe over the combined cycle and can travel an impressive 352 miles (566 km) on a single charge.

The next most efficient models are also the Dual Motor Large Battery and Performance Dual Motor Large Battery models albeit with the available 22-inch wheels. These bigger shoes drop the SUV’s efficiency rating to 75 MPGe combined and lower the range to 341 miles (549 km). The final two versions are the Dual Motor Large Battery with 20-inch all-terrain tires and the Performance Dual Motor Large Battery with 20-inch all-terrain tires. Both of these models have a combined efficiency rating of 68 MPGe and a range of 307 miles (494 km).
