Rivian’s new fold-and-stow electric kitchen lets you cook atop your tailgate
Rivian is selling a travel kitchen accessory for the first time. This is not the comprehensive campsite device it advertised years ago (but never released) that slid out the side of the company’s electric R1T trucks. Instead, this new one is compact and lightweight, designed to sit on a vehicle’s tailgate.
Simply called the Travel Kitchen, it folds out to span the length of the tailgate and features two induction burners, a cutting board that stows away in an organizer drawer, and a pop-out bar for hanging a towel. The unit needs a three-prong 120V power source with 15A of current to work, which you can get from a Rivian vehicle, campsite power, or an F-150 Lighting, Cybertruck, or other vehicle with capable onboard power or a generator.
The cooktops have nine heat levels and share 1500W of power, but a single-running cooktop can take all the energy for maximum heat. It has a “touchscreen power button” that only activates when induction cookware (not included) is set atop the unit and shuts off when removed for safety.
The Travel Kitchen also comes with a stow-away LED lighting kit that hangs off included poles and a carry case so you can pack away the whole setup in any trunk, EV truck frunk, or even Rivian’s gear tunnel. The accessory is available now from Rivian for $1,400 and is part of the automaker’s expanding Adventure Gear line of products.
