Yes, they might be too extreme, but there are many ways to cut cost and still come up with the same design, or a very nice one to replace the hand-made design that they have now. Look at Cadillac, they’d never glue the back of the seats by hand. And they still look nice. It’s the stuff that you...
Well, their main goal is to help manufacturers reduce costs. Rivian spent $120k to build a vehicle that they sell for $70k. They have to shave those pennies to become profitable. I think the main cost cutting is actually the casting of the frame, cradle etc’. Early-built R1 vehicles had an...

Longer cable means more resistance. It’s a huge NO NO. It extends the SC cable and impact it as well(not just the extension cable). Everything is taken into consideration when measuring the current that a vehicle is able to accept, charger cable, plug/charge port, cable from charge port to...
