Most of the points around off-road capability and capacity have been covered adding one from a different perspective. You can view the falcon wing doors as an asset or a liability. If you happen to travel in a not so good area at times it can be a serious liability with the time it takes to...

Rather than invest in a battery for home it would be good to use the R1S as a battery backup. Below is a link to Tesla and Ford bidirectional chargers test. The key components that would be required are a bidirectional charger, a gateway and most important bidirectional capability on the R1S...

Looks like it will be portable. • Induction stovetop with two ranges • Fold out design. Sits on rear door. • Drawer with cutting board and space for utensils • No sink that the prototype had • Powered via rear power outlet • Comes with travel case

May be a great idea for one of the vendors who provide accessories for the R1S. Would buy the electrochromic glass if someone made it available.

One thing I have noticed as of the update before last or the update before that - quite often when you are stopping at a light or elsewhere even while using AP only the front two tires show regen. You will only notice this if you have the detailed diagnostic screen showing tire pressure, motor...

Completed my first R1S quad motor tire rotation. I had gone in for the compact spare which comes with a jack kit, had also invested in a full size tire which also comes with a jack kit to do a 5 tire rotation to get more milage from the tires. Was able to complete in 2 hours - the two jacks...

@Cypress Not aware of any poll/petition other than a number of forum related queries. Rivian wants to keep complete control of their S/W and RJ has mentioned this a number of times.

@jjswan33 not at all, here I was thinking there is no way, thanks to all of you now I know there are at least 3 different ways to do this ?

Below are some key Apple CarPlay updates coming in next version. Rivian will be hard pressed to keep offering new features at par with CarPlay even though some of these are available. Q for EVSportline I assume you can only provide a default capability, some of these will require data sharing...

Evsportline option is great too, they have the end to end solution. For the first option once you mount your iPad, you can use his shortcuts and connect through bluetooth to Rivian music screen plus audio system.

Have been waiting patiently for Rivian (love the vehicle) to announce some kind of solution for Apple CarPlay, does not look like anything is coming. Saw this innovative idea providing the link below. Seriously thinking of going in for this, debating between a iPad mini or iPad air. The...

I have used that charger once, traffic was blocked to Truckee so only option was to fill up at that charger and go for Sac RAN. It worked fine, had dropped the family at a restaurant nearby drove to the charger and doubled back. As I recall charging speed was good only thing was my EA app on...

You are correct Santa Nella going down could have been avoided. Was going with Rivian 's GPS trip calculations it had a small charging stop. Somewhere close to Santa Nella the trip advisor did pop up an option to keep going however I ignored it, if I recall correctly I did switch from All...

Personally speaking I enjoy the vehicle driving experience and not worry too much about efficiency. Would agree with the feedback. The one time recently this became critical was on a trip to Joshua Tree National Park. Had the family with me went in with too few miles, the park is extremely...

Would be great to just remove the 2nd bench middle and leave the two main seats. Wish Rivian offered a 6 seat config.
