The company's announcement highlighted two key components. The topper, designed to fit snugly on the truck’s bed, creates a spacious storage area. Its sides can open on all three sides and is made from materials that appear sturdy, though specifics weren't provided. The camper mounts onto the topper using four tie-down brackets and extends over the rear half of the R1T’s roof. It stands out for its white honeycomb composite material, chosen for its reflective and insulative properties. Notably, it supports additional weight, allowing it to double as a roof rack without obstructing the shark fin antenna necessary for software updates.
Pricing details have been shared as well. The rooftop camper comes with a price tag of $9,450 while the topper is listed at $4,999. Installing both requires an additional $300 fee. Despite this significant investment totaling well over $14,000 when combined—a steep price for an accessory—it underscores an increased versality in making off-the-grid adventures more accessible and comfortable for Rivian R1T owners. Reservations are currently open with a refundable deposit of $100. Production is slated to commence in August, offering customization options such as panel colors for prospective buyers.
