I don't think this proves that LiDAR will make it to production vehicles. Anyone doing ADAS (even Tesla) has test vehicles with LiDAR to calibrate/validate/train the camera/radar based sensor suite in production vehicles. Essentially; LiDAR for test/calibration/model training does not mean we...
IDK, seems your really upset because you caused the wreck (unless someone rear-ended you? but you didn't show any photos of the back...) and are mis-placing your anger and frustration at Rivian.
Rivian recently mentioned they are working on an Authorized Third-Party Service Provider Network in addition to their Certified Collision Center Network.
Found another video about Rivian Certified Collision Repair Network (). One thing I had not heard before is they mention Rivian is also working on establishing a third-party, certified service center network. That would be awesome if they could start getting certified third-party service centers...
Wow. So per that video they will also be using Gen 2 replacement parts on Gen 1 repairs going forward. This would seem to indicate some of the Gen 2 parts are able to be retrofitted to the Gen 1. They use the Front End Module (FEM) as an example but its not clear if the Gen 2 FEM includes the...
From what I have gathered you need to be in Sport, lowest height, low speed with SOC > 80% to see top performance. In some of the out of spec videos Rivian employees confirm that the max torque is only available in Sport mode with the "lowest" ride setting. Then in general, with all EVs, the...
hmmm. I have had a handful of times were my 8/22 built R1T creeped a bit when I let off the pedal and I had to apply the brake to bring to a full stop. Didn't think much of it at the time. I too did not receive this notification and the NHTSA website also shows no open recalls for my VIN. I have...
We do actually know.
Isn't it known that the cells are different; ie Samsung 50G cells in large pack and 53G cells in the max pack. Out of Specs latest video seems to confirm this with the noted weight difference between the large and max packs they tested.
Was randomly checking the tesla supercharger interactive map a few days ago and applied the "open to non-tesla" filter and was surprised to see there was one in Arizona now. The location is not great (Middle of Glendale: 5849 W Northern Ave, Glendale, AZ 85301) but it is only 30 minutes from me...
Thanks everyone that provided constructive feedback. The wood just seemed out of place to me due to the smoothness but that appears to be normal. All is good.
Appreciate the feedback so far. I guess my main issue is the finish of the wood on the left. It is sanded smooth, like literally smooth as a babies butt and literally every other piece of wood trim (rest of the dash, the phone charger trim, the door trim, the rear headrest trim) is not. And the...
So I bought my R1T used a few months ago. It is a 2022 Adventure Trim with Ocean Coast interior. Recently noticed the wood dash to the left of the steering wheel looks different than the rest of the wood throughout the rest of the interior. While all the other wood is rough/natural with a dark...
Yeah... While Clayco seems to have some experience constructing advanced manufacturing facilities and they are also building the VINFast plant in North Carolina, their entire 2022 Revenue was only 5.2B. Which means the Rivian project alone is almost as much as their entire 2022 Revenue was. Hope...
That is very disappointing IMO. It just as loud and stuttery as the original. What happened to the "improved" powered tonneau RJ showed off on instagram back in may that was quiet and smooth?
I'll be honest, if this is what folks with original, broken tonneaus get but folks with new R1Ts...
