Three engines and a more rugged look complete the retro-futuristic performance EV of our fantasies.

The Rivian R2 is the brand's new entry-level electric SUV. But he has a brother. During the R2's launch event, Rivian launched the new R3, an even more compact SUV in performance-focused R3X trim.

Details of the sporty SUV are still thin, but we know it will feature a tri-motor setup. And if the R2 can go 300 miles on a charge while still hitting 60 mph in under three seconds, the R3X should be even faster.

Visually, the R3X looks absolutely solid. Larger wheels and tires and a slight increase in ride height will help it off-road, and extra cladding around the bumpers and wheel wells will help protect it from the elements. There are also orange accents on the exterior; mirror covers, bumpers, tow hooks and more are available.

The interior features two-tone black and beige seats with orange accents and aluminum accents. CEO RJ Scaringe describes the interior as "rugged and fun because it's rugged and fun." Other Earth-friendly materials, such as cork and anodized metal, are also ubiquitous.

There's still not much information about the Rivian R3X, but we'll know more about the full lineup of Rivian's new SUVs (R2, R3, and R3X) in the coming weeks.
