Rivian announced the California Dune edition of its R1 electric vehicles, with new 20-inch All-Terrain wheels, a new paint color, and a protective underbody shield for those with a desire for some serious off-roading.

Rivian has introduced the new R1T and R1S California Dune Editions. They have a unique paint job, special wheels, and a two-tone interior. The EVs have a tri-motor powertrain with 850 hp and 329 miles of range.

You can get the rally-inspired 20-inch wheels in beige or graphite, but they're exclusively available on the new limited-edition California Dune models.

Rivian sent out a teaser via email and social media stating that “ a mirage takes shape Feb 19. ” The photos included several views of sand dunes and a black-and-white photo of a Rivian vehicle, leading many to surmise that part of the announcement would involve a new color.
