  1. Rival: 2026 BMW iX3 reviews are impressive... R2 has its work cut out

    A bigger drop in price than I was expecting.
  2. What’s Coming in Rivian’s 2026.15.30 Hotfix

    And they have been fixed in a matter of weeks. It does many things well and you DON’T have to use it - it is optional. So either switch it off, or use it but cut the incessant whinging about software that was clearly highlighted as evolving/improving at launch.
  3. What’s Coming in Rivian’s 2026.15.30 Hotfix

    It’s not crappy and continual improvements are part of their MO.
  4. Which R2 wheel size is everyone getting?

    And faster performance, semi adaptive suspension and additional color choice.
  5. What’s Coming in Rivian’s 2026.15.30 Hotfix

    This is great, they had a good product a few weeks ago and this improves on it in meaningful ways. That will continue and was expected. Cause for joy not complaint. They are addressing people’s concerns and addressing them quickly.
  6. Self driving update: Gen 2 and Gen 3 Autonomy on R2 should be similar for a "couple of years"

    Yes the price will go up which is why, if you keep the vehicle for 4+ years and value autonomy, it is worth the single payment.
  7. Rivian Communication RAP1+Lidar

    Agree with your take and for those that want the latest (#1 on your comment) we know they are recruiting for people to design RAP2 so by late 2028 or early 2029 (two years from RAP1) there will be a new chip and maybe other changes to the sensors. If you wait for the latest a fear missing out...
  8. Rivian Communication RAP1+Lidar

    I see you are new here. This has been discussed in other threads. Rivian have been more forthcoming than other companies and for most people it doesn’t matter since it only affects autonomy and capability in a couple of years time (will take time for the models to evolve and improve and reach...
  9. R2 Compact Spare tire....are you ordering it on your build?

    Definitely, if you get a puncture and the repair kit cannot fix it then you are in trouble especially if a little off the beaten track. Well worth the money and thankfully they have space for a proper space saver spare unlike some of the other recent EVs.
  10. EPA Range Finalized / Published (R2 Performance)

    Totally agree - relatively easy to get these installed at major malls, cinemas etc to enable people to charge while doing other things.
  11. Which R2 wheel size is everyone getting?

    The sidewall difference is half an inch. If the outer diameter for both is 32” then you have 6 or 5.5” of sidewall - does 0.5” make a massive difference to ride quality?
  12. Which R2 wheel size is everyone getting?

    I can see it costing a $1000 extra at a tire change so you would need to be in your second (50k + miles) to make money back
  13. June 9 - R2 order invites, first customer deliveries and demo drives begin!

    Having a trust fund to fall back on would help!
  14. EPA Range Finalized / Published (R2 Performance)

    No one is going 155mph so it is fair to compare Performance with Performance.
  15. Special Color Releases Like Sneaker Drops!?

    I think they can make upgrades to R1 which don’t need to be covered by the term “gen3”. Items such as the haptic halo steering wheel.
  16. EPA Range Finalized / Published (R2 Performance)

    The Woodland is 500lb lighter than R2 and has a low front end to facilitate aero.
  17. EPA Range Finalized / Published (R2 Performance)

    Thanks, I have heard charging loss can be upto 10% which would boost 3.1 to 3.4 and get closer to the 3.7 or so that the range equates to.
  18. Service Center Kinda Sucks?

    Shame you don’t have two cars
  19. EPA Range Finalized / Published (R2 Performance)

    If it is 32kWh for 100 miles that equates to 3.1 miles per kWh. Given a battery size of 88.5 kWh then the range would be 276 miles. This is less than quoted, what am I missing?
  20. Rivian water bottles now available in R2 colors

    Interesting that the three sold out are all new colors - Catalina Cove, Esker Silver and Half Moon Grey.
