I think he meant the base or standard config of the R2.

That will definitely improve access for people to the west and south, and alleviate the backlog wait in Chelsea for those in/near Boston and to the north. Hopefully part of significant planned expansion before the R2 starts shipping. Thanks for finding and sharing.

I bought my June 2023 R1S with 450 miles on it a month after the original owner took delivery. Transferred ownership in Rivian’s system as soon as I got it registered. They sent me the opt-in email in April, then the shipping address email in early October iirc. Got it a couple weeks later...

Thanks. The first trip I tried after the reset worked - we'll see how it goes from here.

I noticed the same thing. It’s not a removed feature, it’s clearly a bug. It happens on my 2023 R1S intermittently - sometimes the drop down is there as usual, sometimes it isn’t, and sometimes it corrects itself and goes back to normal during a route. Because I don’t always look at or need it...

I spotted one with Michigan manufacturer plates in a driveway in Cambridge, MA a couple weeks ago. There was an ID.4 parked out front, so I think it may have been an overnight test drive for a current VW EV owner. Haven’t seen it since. It was dark and I didn’t want to prowl around their...

I paid $1835 before sales tax for a replacement and calibration at an authorized collision place - reimbursed by my insurer. I first booked at the nearest Safelite for chip filling but when I went out to the garage the next morning it had turned into a crack (in July, no preheating or cooling...

I've had the TeslaTap Mini 80A (http://www.umc-j1772.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=17&product_id=160) for almost a year and a half, and it's been great. Nice and compact - I keep it in the driver's door. The 60A is good enough for the R1s, but I have an early Tesla wall connector on...

After ten years of Teslas and Superchargers, I was prepared for a major setback when I got my R1S in mid-2023. And it was, for the first 9 months or so - older EA stations with only 4 plugs, one of which was broken or Chademo only, chargers needing a call to be rebooted, etc. I couldn't wait for...

My mid-2023 R1S w/Rivian audio is sounding great with Apple Music, Atmos or regular, after I tuned to the settings someone with audio lab equipment posted here (can't remember name, but thank you). One minor issue, one mid-level, and one that really needs attention: 1) Occasionally it...

Oh please. At this point Rivian is a more recognized brand than Scout - only boomers still remember it. And Scout even after ramp up in a few years is a rounding error for VW. VW is not doing this JV to let Rivian die in favor of Scout - they really need help and that includes help running and...

In addition to sales price, purchaser income and domestic content criteria for the new EV tax credit, the IRA also introduced a $4K credit (with price and income restrictions) for used EVs sold by dealers (likely to avoid private sale shenanigans). Again, the goal was to get them in the hands of...

It is inevitable, but the speed with which it happens matters, both for manufacturers and the climate. BloombergNEF are already projecting that it will slow dramatically.

Here’s an example, navigating to a local supermarket in the next city over, a few miles away, it sent me to southern France. When the directions failed the only way to clear them was to use voice input to “cancel navigation.” Then when I typed the name, even without a space, it immediately...

I can’t comment on the specific range question, though I have found over 15 months of R1S ownership that the car’s range projections and EPA estimates tend to be more accurate than Tesla’s. And as a 2013 Model S to 2016 Model X to 2023 R1S owner I can attest that the R1S can hold much more...

Why don’t people just plan in the Rivian app? Make sure you set the right filters for charging networks and whether you have an adapter, how much buffer remaining you are comfortable with, and let it map the route. If you don’t like where it’s charging, pick a different one. Then send the route...

Several articles and interviews I have seen highlight that the JV (and thus Rivian) will get better pricing on electronics, etc. because they are potentially buying millions instead of tens of thousands of units. Whether this applies to other, broader parts categories like motors, glass, tires...

Have them check the 12V ground connection. My June 23 R1S had odd 12V battery issues including bricking for the first two weeks until it spent a week at Chelsea service center and they finally figured it out.

The IRA, Chips and Science Act, and Bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act have all been driving investment into the US for the past 2-3 years, but it takes time to build/expand plants and update sourcing decisions. Despite this lead time, US manufacturing jobs have been growing for...

This. I lost the button a couple updates ago, but turning the garage settings off and back on fixed it.
