R1S highway range and real-world range
At a steady 120 km/h, we estimate the Rivian R1S Dual Max (22-inch wheels) covers about 513 km on a full charge, versus 660 km rated.

R1S highway range at 120 km/h
NRCan's tests show the Dual Max (22-inch wheels) using 18% more energy on the highway than in the city, so highway range is lower the combined rating. NRCan's highway cycle averages well under 100 km/h, so we take its highway figure and reduce it by 15% for 120 km/h. The R1S ranks #3 of 30 on this estimate.

R1S real-world range
Real-world range depends on speed, temperature, wheels and load. Mixed driving in mild weather usually lands near the rated 660 km. Sustained highway speeds pull it toward the 513 km estimate, and a cold highway trip can drop it further; see the R1S winter range. For trip planning, most drivers use between 10% and 80% (charging stops) or 100% (leaving home) of the battery, which is about 381 to 489 km of highway driving.
