Video: Long Way Up — Patagonia to L.A. in an Electric Adventure Vehicle

If you've been looking for something to scratch your adventure itch, it seems like Rivian and Apple TV+ may have just the thing. The two companies have joined forces to release a new travel show that is coming to Apple's streaming service on September 18. The program will follow along as a team of adventures takes two of Rivian's R1T electric pick-up trucks from the southernmost point of South America in Patagonia all the way to Los Angles. In order to do that, the start-up vehicle manufacturer had to build out an electric charging network and plan a number of logistics. That alone should be fascinating to watch, but they also passed through 13 countries and covered 13,000+ miles (20,920+ km) while en route. If the preview above is any indication, they saw some pretty epic scenery along the way. After watching the short teaser, I'm already looking forward to this.
