I configured my R1S with Midnight black and ocean coast interior and 22 inch sport tires. Since I can get a similar price, I am considering switching to the Glacier White and the Forest Edge interior as long as I keep the 21 inch (standard road) tire. I just like the look of the forest edge...

So, deliveries of the R1T have started (for non-employees) and so much info has come out about the R1T - including surprises and easter eggs (e.g. Bluetooth speaker). That said, it's high time Rivian's marketing team give some attention to the info starved R1S reservation holders. Just some of...

I am hoping to hear more about the build quality and materials used inside - I saw some of the pictures of the back of the seats (and pockets) which looked somewhat cheap. Until I get the opportunity to test drive the R1S (which I assume has the same seats and interior config), can someone speak...

I pre-ordered the R1S in August, however, if my delivery is going to be in 2023, I will be considering my options regarding the competition which will offer similar range and (on-road) performance, if they have a better delivery estimate. I am keeping my existing SUV limping along (for 12+...

I am also hoping that Rivian provides a HUD as an option along with running boards (for the R1S).

Wait a sec - I thought Rivian was using Samsung as the manufacturer of their batteries. Did they switch to LG (especially for the upcoming R1S) ? P.s. I understand that the pouch style batteries are not being used by Rivian, so this specific issue (causing the pack fires in GM) will probably...

I really hope they do better than Bluetooth and NFC (the former is a hodgepodge of varying support levels and encryption and NFC requires very close proximity....but less likely to be intercepted).

Here is a good visual overview of the UWB capabilities and future scope - some major financial and tech companies are supporting this standard: https://www.firaconsortium.org/discover/use-cases

I really hope they consider people that would be going off-grid for adventures when recommending a mobile app for digital key support (Cell/4G signal could be a problem). The ability of UWB based phones to trigger automation routines (including smart home) via a digital key app (integrated with...

Starting with Samsung S21, iPhone 11 and soon the Pixel 6 smartphones, we are starting to see greater adoption of Ultra Wide Band. A number of car manufactures have also stated their intent to use this technology for secure car access and other features (Digital car keys), this includes Audi...

It seems the reviews are coming out for the upcoming Lucid Dream EV. https://electrek.co/2021/08/25/lucid-air-dream-edition-buyers-choice-over-1000-hp-500-miles-range/ Lucid has also set the benchmark for EV range (500Miles/charge) and this review backs that up... I am somewhat disappointed...

Hey Everyone, just wondering, If Rivian did not provide a suitable option for a (relatively) large EV SUV, what similarly priced ICE SUV would you have considered getting? Do you have concerns about the quality and reliability of the Rivian R1S vs. a legacy ICE based substitute ? Personally - I...
