That's great news Ryan! Are locations known at this point? If not is it safe to assume that they will be installed along the corridors outlined here? https://www.tn.gov/content/dam/tn/environment/energy/documents/EVChargingOpportunityMap_DCFC_11.20.pdf

I hope this will be the case. All budget friendly cars coming this year can charge at or close to 150kW rate-VW ID.4, Ford Mach-E, Nissan Ariya. Hyundai Ioniq 5 will probably be capable to charge at even higher rates. And this is already this year and at the lower end of EV price range. Keeping...

In the documents they talk about 'at least 50kW' chargers. I believe it was written in 2019, so hopefully they will install something with more power than that.

Well I guess some of us will have to cancel their preorders :P. Unless they really look for "Project Manger" https://boards.greenhouse.io/rivian/jobs/4302543003

EA has a charger in Bishop. They also have one at Coso Junction, 30 miles from Inyokern. Both are 350kW

Got ya. I see it will basically have an outlet providing up to 3.5 kW vs Rivian's ~1.6kW. It will also support 220V. Nice. Personally it doesn't make much difference for me as I'm not in a market for a compact hatchback.

Which Hyundai is V2G capable? As far as I'm aware only Mitsubishi Outlander and Nissan Leaf are V2G capable vehicles.

I also don't have any deal breakers at this point. The major disappointment is lack of Android Auto. For now the only possible deal breakers I can think about are: 1. No proper blind spot monitoring system in side mirrors 2. No 360 top-down camera view 3. Service center further than 45 minute...

Range lost in winter is definitely not a Hyundai thing. Every EV is loosing range in winter and you can be sure that Rivian will loose it as well. Many stats can be found, but in general I find them to be in line with these findings - on average ~20% in zero Celsius...

Before I got this response there were rumors that outlets will provide 400W only, so though more power would be appreciated, I was actually quite happy that it's 15A. It will be enough to power most camping equipment I can think of.

Received following email from Rivian: "I have some more updated information for you in regards to your question about our outlets in our vehicles. After speaking with my design team, I have learned that our 110v outlets are rated to 15A "

I think it's also worth mentioning that feature has following limitations: - It's limited to a couple hundred feet (200 ft. if I remember correctly) - Manual says that you have to watch the car all the time and be ready to take control - The speed is limited (4 mph?) and with all the maneuvering...

@Lil'O Annie, sounds like your use case would require full autonomy of the vehicle pretty much as you would have to let it drive on its own for a couple miles without any supervision. This kind of feature is not offered by anyone at this moment and it's unlikely to appear in next couple years.

That one I think should be available in Rivian. In my current car's app I can see position of the car on the map. You can just walk there or turn on navigation to the car. You can also ask it to flash or honk if you're close and still don't see it.

If you mean something like Tesla has at the moment, that's totally useless feature in my opinion :) If you mean something like "hey Rivian I'm hiking this trail, pick me up on the other end" - that would be awesome, but realistically that won't happen anytime soon.

Understood that. I'm assuming that all of us already have data plan on their smartphones, so using Google Maps through Android Auto doesn't cost anything extra really.

One more reason it would be nice to have Android Auto and just use Google Maps.

Nashville We need Rivian to build some chargers in Smokies/Appalachians for us :)

This should be fixed pretty soon. EA has chargers almost finished in Birmingham and Montgomery.

I have received following email from Rivian: "Yes, the R1T will have a 360-degree camera" Good to hear that. The info on the page "Manual Park Assist: A 360° detection system designed to help sense and alert you to objects" sounds more like 360 proximity sensors. It seems it will have both...
