  1. Official Rivian Email: A Look Ahead to 2023. Rivian Membership cancelled and unbundled into subscription services

    Why, every single other automaker resells LTE connectivity with the most basic of functionality? Tesla is the only one that allows you to do other things like games and video.
  2. Official Rivian Email: A Look Ahead to 2023. Rivian Membership cancelled and unbundled into subscription services

    They didn't say that everyone would unanimously agree it was better, they said they believed their own approach was a better one and they'll stick to it until forced to do otherwise. It's up for the market to decide for themselves. If you don't think it's worth paying for LTE to stream music or...
  3. Official Rivian Email: A Look Ahead to 2023. Rivian Membership cancelled and unbundled into subscription services

    How would it be more clear than this one?? Those services will no longer be covered by Rivian starting on the dates provided. There is zero ambiguity in that statement. The old deal is scrapped, this is the new deal, that's it.
  4. Official Rivian Email: A Look Ahead to 2023. Rivian Membership cancelled and unbundled into subscription services

    At most they could do what EA does and charge a nominal membership to get better pricing, but other than that it will be the same as every other charging network. It's pretty simple.
  5. Charging door not opening via touch

    Try simply opening the door and closing it to wake up the truck. My truck will sometimes enter a deep sleep within 30 minutes of getting home, for example, when it was a long drive and it assumes I'm done for awhile.
  6. Official Rivian Email: A Look Ahead to 2023. Rivian Membership cancelled and unbundled into subscription services

    Yeah, shit happens and life isn't fair. ~$150 isn't worth the energy needed to complain about it. $150 is an afterthought for an individual customer, but is meaningful when multiplied by tens of thousands of vehicles for Rivian. It's a waste of money to give it away for free.
  7. Official Rivian Email: A Look Ahead to 2023. Rivian Membership cancelled and unbundled into subscription services

    No one is going to subscribe to RAN. They are saying you will pay at the pump like everywhere else.
  8. Official Rivian Email: A Look Ahead to 2023. Rivian Membership cancelled and unbundled into subscription services

    I don't get what the confusion and/or consternation is about this. Before, they envisioned the Membership to be a bundled service, which would have been unique in the industry. As of now, that only included LTE connectivity and free RAN charging. The email says that they have decided to scrap...
  9. Responding to the "We’d Love to Hear From You" Survey

    Dash cam they've been working on. A major navigation update will be included in one of the next couple OTA's.
  10. Charging door not opening via touch

    Does it happen after it has been sitting awhile (several hours)? Mine does this when the vehicle is in a deep sleep. A quick open/close of one of the cabin doors and the capacitive button wakes up. If it was locked, I'd think an unlock from the app would also achieve the same end.
  11. Rivian Hits 25,000 Vehicle Production Goal For 2022!

    I think the point is that even Normal operating at full capacity is not a "ramp" in the grand scheme of things, i.e. that does not get them to profitability or sustainability. 2026 is the start of R2 in GA, which is akin to Tesla's M3/MY (though is still only another 200k capacity, but that...
  12. Rivian Hits 25,000 Vehicle Production Goal For 2022!

    They never formally/publicly set a target of 50k for 2022. That was the analyst consensus coming out of the IPO (some higher, some lower). Perhaps that was guided by statements from Rivian behind closed doors during the IPO road show (and/or early comments regarding time to complete Launch...
  13. 2023 Rivian EPA Numbers published on official website

    So a couple things: The EPA doesn't run tests quickly enough for this to be entirely reflective of the most recent software update. Their VP of Software stated on Reddit chats in August that they had been making incremental improvements to range over the course of several OTAs up to that point...
  14. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    Yeah, I'm sure there's a threshold where it caps out at ambient plus XX, perhaps plus 60 or something. Luckily I'll never see those temps myself.
  15. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    Could be the case in negative temps, but I haven't seen any issue in more moderately cold temps (tested with an external BT sensor).
  16. Tidal Hifi+ sounds much much better than Spotify

    Not on mine, it's set to Master with the HiFi+ subscription.
  17. Tidal Hifi+ sounds much much better than Spotify

    In the Tidal settings in the Rivian, it allows for 4 levels of streaming quality, with Master as the highest (Normal, High, HiFi, Master; at least with the HiFI+ subscription). I can't say what the available settings would be with only a regular HiFI subscription, but perhaps others can. I...
  18. 0°F Commute Efficiency

    It doesn't really apply to a standstill scenario, but remember that they also scavenge heat from the drivetrain, so after a bit of driving it would need to tap the resistive heating less and thus be more efficient. Another reason cold weather efficiency improves with driving (everything warms up...
  19. Tidal Hifi+ sounds much much better than Spotify

    I've had that in the past, but it went away, perhaps with resets. Has nothing to do with Tidal.
  20. Tidal Hifi+ sounds much much better than Spotify

    I doubt they do either, but there is still a clear reason for the +. Regular HiFi taps out at something like 1400kbps, which is less than half of Amazon's Ultra HD (3500), but still better than Spotify Premium (300's). Tidal HiFi+ gets you up to Master quality, which is up to around 9400kbps...
