Dang! What a shame. If you have rivians ear, this is definitely a feature many of us dual motors will want. I know that Kyle from Out of Spec has mentioned it in his videos and even directly to Rivian Engineers.
Hi @Rivian Roamer , any chance you know if there will be a "shortcut" to switch drive modes on Dual Motors?
Really hoping this gets added since the drive modes get changed back to All Purpose automatically after a few hours. Would love a quick way to swap back to my preferred mode and setting!
Upcoming software update 2025.10 looks to be fixing this issue! From the notes:
"Faster level 2 charging in freezing temps"
I don't think this was explicitly called out in prior updates like it is now. I know this issue won't affect most people now that it's spring but it's a welcomed fix...
Not sure if it was just lip service but SC told me that this was being addressed during the next SW update after I submitted a ticket for the same thing.
@Sojhinn - sorry for the clarifying question - do you anticipate that Gen 2 chargers will eventually be able to have a step down module like Gen 1 or is that not possible with the NFC reader? I really love that for gen 1 install it hid all the wires and that you didn't need to use up any USB...
Data point for folks thinking of canceling/re-ordering. I placed an order for a R1S dual motor max pack on 12/31 through the shop and had a delivery for 1/31.
After the incentives dropped I reached out to my guide to see if they could apply the discount despite placing the order before the cut...
@Seano are these still working well with your gen 2? Picking up my R1S in a few weeks and was hoping they'd come out with a gen 2 version but might just pick up the gen 1 version at this point.
Ah that's a bummer! I'm one of those sickos that has and android AND doesn't like cases. I was planning on ordering as soon as they became available but will hold off for now.
Would be cool if you were able to include/sell an adhesive "ridge" for folks in a similar boat.
Question from a new owner. How does this work with androids? I know apple has magsafe so that holds it place with this mat. Without the ridge from Gen2 and magsafe, how do androids stay in place while driving?
