I'll be honest, Rivian needs to wake up tomorrow or the next day and dump ALLLLL the information on their trucks as possible because Ford just knocked it out of the park.
There are other changes for sure... some things i've noticed:
Black headliner seems standard on Black interior now. It used to be limited to the launch edition only and was gray if you picked a non launch edition previously. Adventure package only.
With the ocean coast interior i thought the...
On any map you make don't forget to overlay Whole Foods locations as i'm pretty sure they will put Rivian charges at all those locations... maybe not DCFC but still.
One thing that is interesting... it says the Rivian is compatible with other CCS chargers but specifically says everything can be done THROUGH the Rivian app to authorize and initiate the charge.
One would assume Electrify America and others would be integrated then ala Ford Pass.
This is great, and hopefully it rolls out as good as it seems. But i honestly think 99% of the questions we all have could be answered by RJ in a 30 minute video or townhall or something.
Just get that BASIC stuff out of the way, then let us talk to the Rivian Guides about anything specific.
I'm not against unseen but there needs to be a return policy in place, like all the other "unseen" retailers have.
I don't care if it's only 3 days, I need the security that i enjoy the truck and it fits my families lifestyle before i make a final decision.
Yes, it bothers me as well. I get the PR fluff and it needs to be done, but you already sold out of all your trucks in 2021. How about giving some information to us, the people who are going to spend $80k on a truck
This 100%. Honestly Ford is owning the internet right now with all the Mach E stuff coming out and it's looking more and more attractive every day, and at a much lower price.
Rivian needs to realize this quick and get ahead of it.
Looking at the photos from the configurator it looks like the grab handles on the black interior are yellow on the inside.
Looking at the photos above i really hope those yellow seat belts show up.
Just a FYI, Rivian replied on Instagram with the questions about Launch Green, this is their reply:
Launch Green will be an exclusive option to Launch Edition vehicles in addition to the other 9 colorways!
