  1. open-source Rivian drive/charge ledger and trip planner

    How does you app differ from Rivian Roamer?
  2. R3 and R3x hood length

    That'd be the return of the Suzuki "Summersault" as it goes ass over teakettle whenever it hits a dip. :p
  3. R3 and R3x hood length

    Better double-check your memory. I had a 1991 Civic Si the hood was about 40% of the total length of the car. And the only way you shorten the hood a foot is to drastically shorten the wheelbase and make the interior even smaller.
  4. "Design Yours" link on R2 website

    That’s what I thought. Between what he said and reading between the lines, sure, they would have liked for things to be aligned but that wasn’t going to happen and they had to move on.
  5. "Design Yours" link on R2 website

    Yup- not by choice. Personally FWIW, I think they know LIDAR deliverability will be at least a year out - maybe midyear next year. It certainly doesn't "obsolete" the R2's LE
  6. "Design Yours" link on R2 website

    RJ has addressed this in several online videos. The development of the tech stack had to remain on its own timeline, supply chain not an insignificant factor - to the point they couldn't delay R2 any longer. Ideal? No - but, given the other recent announcement about next-gen development of...
  7. R2 back windows?

    They did not make it into production.
  8. Wait for R2 or get an R1?

    Welcome to the new world of EV's where your car is now like your phone: "Wait for iPhone 18 or buy 17 now? But I hear 19 will have a shiny new doodad." FOMO with tech is real - and it gets really hard when that tech costs $60K.... If I were you personally, I'd look for a great short term lease...
  9. Is this Esker Silver? - Video

    Yep.
  10. Friend bought ModelY after keeping R1S for a day, and after learning about R2

    Autonomy is one of those upsell features that get people to pay more for a car... then never use. Example: *"Only 12% of Tesla’s current fleet actively uses the Full Self-Driving (Supervised) package, according to statements made by Tesla’s CFO on a Q3 earnings call. Data from YipitData...
  11. Will R2 come with portable charger?

    I'd rather be able to select my own rather than have one baked into the cost of the vehicle.
  12. Thoughts from people who have seen the R2 in person.

    Probably the "biggest" one is no electrochromic glass roof on R2. There's also no air compressor.
  13. Thoughts from people who have seen the R2 in person.

    Everything I've seen says it does not.
  14. Tesla to upgrade all HW3 cameras and computers to HW4 - RJ, your move.

    You'll never be legally allowed to be the "person in control" of an HF vehicle and be drunk/DUI-worthy.
  15. Rivian Autonomy+ vs Subaru Eyesight

    Also- demanding pricing from what is essentially still a relatively tiny start-up heavily in CapEx mode to any legacy manufacture with far higher revenue (Subaru's rev was ~32 Billion last year) and global reach is not a logical comparison. Also, in the "what am I missing" category: Subaru...
  16. Rivian considering making own LiDAR sensors

    As has been pointed out multiple times in this thread - whatever the Gen 1 of LIDAR will be is already baked in. This new development of fully vertically integrating in house is a play for Gen 2 or maybe Gen 3. The first-year's R2' LE's NEVER promised they'd have the hardware for LIDAR, just the...
