With a 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 km/h) time of 3 seconds, due to its 835 hp (623 kW; 847 PS) combined output power, [10] the R1S shares 91% of its components with the company's R1T, [11] noted for its low center of gravity. [12] The vehicle is equipped for semi-autonomous driving according to level 3 and designed for road traffic and off-road driving.
