A pretty fascinating look under the hood of the Rivan R2. Rivian just posted an interesting video about the design and engineering work that goes into its upcoming R2 vehicle. The best part is when they take us into the garage where they work on their engineering test vehicles and we get to see the 'Mule 3.2,' which is basically an x-ray version of the car with all the wiring and electrical components completely exposed. I promise, it's SFW.
