So far, from the online chat, we’ve established that: A) The configurator will be out “well before” December 31 B) It might be out before Thanksgiving, but it’ll definitely be out before the end of the year C) It’ll be out “Very soon” Now if you can logic-puzzle out a release date from the...

That’s very nearly almost a sort of informative-ish answer!

Because: A) They’ve said it’ll be out by the end of the year, and words have to mean something B) Literally EVERY time we ask them anything, the answer is always “that information will be available in the configurator.” So unless they want us to be totally in the dark until the very last...

Some people just take things too darn seriously, eh? Tsk tsk tsk

It’s these darn electrical engineering types. They just get their math and stuff all over the place. Get a thread, people

Uhuh. I don’t think we can really know that until the car comes out. Regardless, I’ll simply follow whatever practices Rivian says are best for the vehicle. Simple as

Meh. I leave my T8 plugged in constantly whenever it’s not in use, and my battery is fine I’m sure the battery control software manages that sort of thing without needing human intervention

Yeah, I can’t really be bothered to do any level of math whatsoever when it comes to roadtrips and the like. Assuming Rivian’s GPS has a feature like Tesla’s where it can find and plot routes based on charger locations, my grand strategy for long trips is: Step 1) Have a full charge before I...

Idk, like, for fun? Nothing else to do while they give us zero new info on a daily basis

Somebody should email/ask on the phone about the configurator again. Just to see if it’s still “By the end of the year” That darn configurator has a nasty habit of always being around the corner but never actually coming

https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a34455551/2021-ford-bronco-configurator/ And another configurator goes live. And here we remain. With some interior colours swatches, a couple of paint colours, and the battery sizes Someday, when the stars have aligned and we’ve sacrificed the appropriate...

Let’s be real, until there is a specific date attached to any of Rivian’s statements regarding the release of details/the configurator, they’re about as useful as a screen door on a submarine Not that I’m complaining; I’d rather they get stuff done right, not quick. But even a little bit of...

As......presumably fascinating/informative (I’d have no idea) as all this techno-jargon is, I think the VAST majority of buyers probably only care about how fast the vehicle will charge off a regular ol’ Level 2 home charger, since anyone coming from a Not A Tesla PHEV/BEV will likely have one...

I’m fairly confident that Rivian will keep the prices as they are. It would be kinda....well, not a slap in the face, but disappointing if RJ raised the prices after having already lowered them. I mean, I’ll totally buy one, but I’d be very cross while I wrote the check

By golly, reading this thread has suddenly thrown me into the 400-level electrical engineering course that I never bothered taking in uni.

On my XC60 T8, if I’ve been driving in EV mode at high speeds or in hot weather, after I park it the cooling fans kick into high gear and sound like a turbine I think it’s a common thing since batteries get quite hot under heavy use

I know it’s been said before, but I’m beginning to suspect that Rivian is waiting for all the stuff it’s currently participating in (Long Way Up, Rebelle Rally) as well as things like the Hummer reveal, to be over before it releases more info/the configurator.

Gotta keep em entertained somehow!

Almost certainly. I just hadn’t noticed those in any other interior pictures before. Maybe this is the premium sound system IRL?

Perhaps I’ve just missed it in previous interior photos, but I don’t recall seeing the things circled in red on the A-Pillar before. Speakers maybe? I know Audis have speakers there when you option the B&O sound systems
