Is Alexa+ Coming to Rivian?

[TexasBob]

Amazon is launching its new Alexa+ this month (see links) which promises to be a genuinely smart digital assistant that can remember you and follow you seamlessly across devices etc. Do we have any guidance on whether it is coming to the Rivian and whether it will be included in connect+ or will need a separate Amazon subscription?

The Amazon site says clearly that it's free for now, then available free to Prime members or for $20/mo for non Prime members. Rivian is not listed as one of the places it will (at least initially) be available.

Wassym made reference to an Alexa overhaul on Reddit just yesterday. I'll bet my left nut it's Alexa+.

I love my truck and I love Rivian, but my Alexa works as well as DragonSpeak voice software for Windows 98

Alexa, remind me to collect a left nut in a couple months ?

If Alexa is making the reminder then don’t worry, your nut is safe.

And for over a year acknowledged the current implementation not being "up to par". Can't remember the exact language.

I suspect your right; I'd raise your bet, but.......
