I had a R1T large pack and now a new dial motor Mac pack. I found the EPA numbers to be very accurate on both vehicles when driving in a way that represents the EPA test conditions. *** The EPA is not saying you will get that range at continuous freeway speeds. *** Rivian is not saying you...

Good advice. I had the same issue and had to shop around for a longer pin.

Not normal. My Gen 2 loses about 0.1kwh in 24 hrs.

My new Gen 2 R1T max pack dual is showing very little vampire drain. One 24 hr test had 0.2 kWh consumption and a second test over 48 hrs had 0.1 kWh per the trip meter. No estimated miles lost. it was in my garage, I walked by frequently with my phone, opened cab doors several times...

Great video. Can someone explain a couple things on the screen shots below from the 12v portion of the video. what is meant by “ front facia must be installed”? What is EZCM? What is “North power distribution unit”?

I recently got a Gen2 after trading in a Gen1. The Gen2 pressure updating does seem to take a lot longer after a wake up.

Drop full self driving and make the vehicle less expensive. Sign me up. No interest at all in FSD.

I have observed this behavior too. But if I charge to 100% and track the power consumed and then charge back up to 100% the numbers work out. I think it might be a state of charge calibration thing. See my post here on battery degradation testing for an example...

Are you recirculating inside air or bringing in outside air? That setting can change the behavior a lot.

I think, and I’m only guessing, but it might be because at lower temperatures some energy from the motors goes into keeping the battery warm. If in conserve mode, the two motors have to work harder to provide that energy negating the benefit of shutting off the other two.

I agree with the OP. Conserve is fine for tire wear. And, as also noted, conserve only real gets better efficiency at warmer temps based on my data collection from the same 165 mile route driven many times.

@ksurfier goes deep into the archives this Holloween eve. This observation has held up over time. With the Quad motor Rivian the conserve mode really only results in improved efficiency in warmer weather. I now have a dual motor R1T and so far that efficiency is very similar to the Quad motor...

35k on my first set of 21s

I miss the idea of them. But the reality is I never used rock crawl or sand mode. Rally you can get by turning stability off. The All Purpose steering mapping on gen2 feels about like sport did on gen 1.

Here is a bit more detail on my Gen 2 efficiency/range observations so far vs my Gen 1 and out Volvo XC40 recharge. This data is over the same route we take often. 165 miles mix of freeway and rural roads. Looks like the Gen2 efficiency is very close to the Gen 1 but the range is obviously...

It’s not quite lifetime but over the last 47,000 miles this was the trip meter. 2.08.

Made a drive at 45 deg. The efficiency of the Gen2 was about the same as the Gen1 at that temp. I will continue to monitor and report.

Yes. Installed on delivery. Working well.

Regarding the steering; There is only All Purpose mode on the Gen 2 and no Sport Mode. The steering response of the All Purpose Gen 2 is like a better implementation of the Gen 1 Sport Mode. Tight and silky with more feedback on corners. The ride/Suspension feels better. Maybe less...

The max pack is not LFP. I too have concerns about LFP in the cold.
