  2. Finished R2 demo test drive? Share your review / impressions

    Just finished a test drive. Performance half Moon gray. Hit the highway at 80mph. In no way did it feel cheap. I take liked the seats, very comfortable. Ride hight was great. Didn't feel small in any way. Ride quality was great. Road noise, was excellent. Music quality was decent. All...
  3. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    It’s a gimmick, but I don't mean that as a pure negative. A gimmick catches your attention, but it doesn't automatically mean it's a foundational tech shift. The reality is, being able to say 'Hey car, do X' isn't new. We've had voice-to-action for over a decade. Integrating an LLM like Gemini...
  4. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    Give me YouTube Music Native, Text read/reply with all text platform ( SMS,MMS, RCS, and OTT) and I'll sign up. I couldn't care less about "Hey, Rivian" its cool but a gimmick
  5. No real AM or FM radio in the R2

    Many EVs lack AM because the motor interferes with the signal I'm shocked how many people still use "radio" , I haven't used FM in at least 20 years. It was all the same songs, annoying DJs and ADs even back then I don't care about CarPlay / Android auto as platform and know that the only...
  6. My R2 Delivered (VIN 0686) - First Photo 📸

    I haven't driven an R2 yet, BUT, if Gen 2 is any indication....... if you have the Meridian system and Audio is most important to you. Add a Comma Ai (for UHF ability) to your Gen 1 and ride that thing until the wheels fall off. Most in-house system will not meet Meridian (or other...

    Is the key-up setting all-purpose or conserve mode?

    I'm sure they are too, but they also need need to play corporate financial gymnastics on what to delivery for best stock and news cycle performance.

    Do you love it so far? I'll get one one day, i cant part with my R1S
  10. My R2 Delivered (VIN 0686) - First Photo 📸

    I believe you, don't worry that's not my point. But honestly that picture could be a test drive unit or whatever, my point is everyone is so concerned about deliveries and invite email, I think they don't realize how few of these are actually being delivered in this initial roll out
  11. My R2 Delivered (VIN 0686) - First Photo 📸

    Aside from this one random picture, that proves little, I saw an employee post on LinkedIn last week, and Karen Conner from OOS whining that he doesn't have his, Has anyone see any actual deliveries? I haven't see much on twitter or youtube from actual owners flexing their new toy. My...

  13. Customer R2 deliveries

    Haha, get a used R1S. Maybe that'll move you up in line. Curious how many real customer deliveries actually happened the week.
  14. Customer R2 deliveries

    Yeah Kyle has gone full Karen, he was banking on a big revenue week. My assumption is they wanted to hit delivery date they promised wall Street, so they launched it half backed. The influencers will all get delivery at once when the software and audio is dialed in

    I'm excited for R2, but not sure I can part with my R1S. How does the ride quality fell compared to R1 ?
