Bay Area Rivian Club
Before our Rivians arrived, many of us were just names on a preorder list, swapping stories online and imagining the adventures ahead. When those long-awaited vehicles finally rolled into our driveways, something unexpected happened: we didn’t just want to drive them—we wanted to explore together.
That’s how the Bay Area Rivian Club was born. What started as a group of eager owners quickly grew into a vibrant community of adventurers, trail seekers, and everyday EV enthusiasts. As the very first chapter of Rivian Clubs of America, the Bay Area Rivian Club set the tone for what’s now a nationwide movement of connection, exploration, and responsible fun.
Whether you’ve just taken your first electric Launch, are still curious from the sidelines, or have logged so many off-road miles you’re still finding mud weeks later—there’s a place for you here.
