The 0-60, quarter mile time, and trap speed are almost identical to a Corvette e-ray. Absolutely astonishing. The 60-0 braking distance and skid pad performance are also amazing for a 6900 pound pickup truck. The trap speed of 128.6 mph indicates that it likely has closer to 1150 hp. The best...
I was contacted by Rivian Service today to schedule a mobile appointment to tighten something on the wheel hubs of my 2023 R1S. The advisor said it was a proactive campaign and that the vehicle was safe to drive. I scheduled an appointment for March 28, which was the earliest available. I didn’t...
It was 2%/day or a little over 2.5kWh. My wife and I have a three vehicle rotation and two wall connectors, and the Rivian was parked for extended periods of time recently not plugged in. I think the 2%/day is pretty accurate. I just assumed some software update had made it worse. I didn’t...
2% a day. In garage, so the vehicle would periodically wake up when my wife or I entered the garage with our phones. Gear Guard off. I think it was more like 1% a day until recently.
Update: My 12V battery was replaced yesterday by mobile service. Good service experience. The tech was right on time and very friendly. Texted me when he was 15-20 minutes from my house. Would not confirm or deny that there was a bad batch of batteries. He did say that it had been noted that my...
I thought they switched to the single 12V by mid 2023, but I’m not 100% sure. With my service appointment so close, I think I will wait to find out when the replacement occurs.
Just received a phone call this afternoon from Rivian to schedule me for a mobile service appointment to proactively replace my 12 V battery. They said they will be reaching out to people with early/mid 2023 builds to get their 12V batteries replaced. I have a 2023 R1S built 06/23 delivered...
I have STEK windshield film on my R1S and my two Teslas. Between the three vehicles, I had about 85,000 miles with no cracked windshields. Several hits, many of which I feel would have caused a crack. However, yesterday had a large rock strike on the windshield of my Model X. If I had gotten it...
I thought cabin overheat was primarily a safety feature in case a child was accidentally left in the car, or a pet was left in the car and the owner forgot to turn on dog/pet comfort mode.
There are still a lot of V2 only stations in the Intermountain west. Many of these are in sparsely populated areas. I have used most of these stations at one time or another, and if you don’t have to share, 150 kW is plenty, particularly if you have a small battery like in the 3/Y. I don’t...
I’m sorry this happened to you. $2500 for glass roof replacement is insane. The roof replacement on my Model Y was $1286. I really like my R1S, but the repair costs are worrisome.
