A Rivian R1T that was fully engulfed by Hurricane Helene's flood waters somehow still works, according to a Facebook video posted by Joshua Vincent Sauer.

In the video, you can see that the Rivian is covered in mud that reached up to its roof. The owner tells Sauer that he parked it near the Swannanoa River in the Asheville, North Carolina area. When Hurricane Helene hit, the water level rose, flooding the surrounding area. The cataclysmic flooding has ravaged the Southeast, devastating North Carolina and other states and leading to over 100 deaths.

Many roads and entire districts are still impassible due to flooding, and power and water services are out for countless people in the area.
