Out of Spec simulates a typical family road trip from Denver, CO to Las Vegas with 4 of the best 3-row electric SUVs from Tesla, Kia, Rivian and Mercedes.

The Out of Spec YouTube channel has a large library of electric vehicle comparison videos. Their long-distance races in particular do a great job highlighting each vehicle platform's best features and where they fall short. For this latest race, the team is pitting large, three-row SUVs against one another in a simulation of a traditional family road trip. The first competitor is the Rivian R1S. This is a first-generation example, not the updated 2025 model.

This was probably the right decision for them, but they expressed frustration with the fact that the CCS station was located over a mile from the highway. Thankfully, their charge session started without a hitch and the car was still pulling 220 kW while 70% charged. Unfortunately, Electrify America may be getting better, but it's not without its issues still. Two of the stations were out of service. But after a charge session of just over 10 minutes, they were back on the road again.
