Autonomy+ change?

[Luxus]

We all got the Autonomy+ trial that ended after a couple of months a while ago. After it was supposed to end, I tried using it and confirmed that it wasn't working anymore. Rivian said it would stop and obviously I did not sign up for it. No problem.

Fast forward to yesterday. I'm on a several hundred mile road trip and I'm using the 'free' cruse control. At one point I somehow pull the stalk twice while activating the cruse. I immediately notice the steering starts feeling tighter/stiffer than before. Looking at the screens I realize the universal hands free has activated. Which is weird because I never signed up for it. Curious, I tried to a lane change on command and that did not work. So seems I now can use just the universal hands free.

Is this some thing that Rivian changed that I missed (very possible)? Or maybe a glitch that for once works in my favor?

I can't be much help as we had enough points to pony up the $2,500 but my understanding is that you should have UHF on mapped divided interstates, same as when you bought it.

That is Highway Assist; available on mapped roads only.

OK, sounds like something that was always there. I was just unaware/unclear on the details. Thanks for the replies.

The only thing (at the moment) that you do not get without A+ is (1) hands free instead of hands on and (2) automatic lane change. If it allowed you to run hands free then yes you are getting functionality you did not pay for.

Yep, it's just the lane centering and such that remains standard. It's still not clear without the icon (straight lines) which roads are mapped and eligible until you're on them though. I wish there was a map, or something on Rivian Nav like a color change on the road that would make this more clear.

I totally would love having an indication in the nav…
