We drove from Salt Lake City to NY on our R1S quad with 21 inch road, relying on EA and RAN chargers exclusively. We had not yet received the NCAS adaptor so couldn't use Tesla chargers. We had previously done the drive with a Tesla. First, kudos to EA. Every charger worked flawlessly and never...
I believe the correct way to calculate percent loss/day is an exponential loss function. Anyway, my only point of that my this is disappointing compared to Kia and Tesla, especially since I followed all the suggestion on this forum and also consulted the service center.
Someone else please check my math, but I think that the rate of loss is a bit over 2%/day. That still seems real high when it is in service and transport mode, at least compared to the several other EVs I've owned.
A quick update on my storage experience. I left the R1S in service and shipping mode for 40 days with SOC af 77% in an apartment garage with temps approximately 55F. When I woke up the car, the SOC was 33%. This is disappointing and unacceptable. I have left my Kia EV6 and Tesla MY and M3 for 2...

Hopefully given that the car is in shipping and service mode, and in a garage, it will not loose 2%. Will find out in another 5 weeks. That being said, my Telsas certainly never loose any where near 2% per day -- more like 2% per week. I don't see why it should be different for Rivian.
Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. I will start with what seem like the most simple and low-risk (of making things worse) options. It was black tea with a bit of lemon. I am away for a couple of weeks so will not be able to post a picture, but will do so upon my return.
I spilled some tea on the seat and immediately wiped it up, but it left a very prominent stain. Then I tried using some non-alcohol baby wipes, which is what I have used for 7 years of ownership of white tesla interiors. That did not work at all. I tried a little soapy water, and again, no luck...
I am going to be storing my R1S in my apartment garage, where the temps usually are around 55, for 6 weeks. But I can not keep in plugged in to a charger. I will fully charge it before storing. I would appreciate any suggestions on how to reduce the battery drain. I have left my Tesla's for up...
Can you please let me know where you got the cover for the rear, and if you found it to be a good fit. I am in SLC and looking for something to protect the back from skis. Thanks.
I am taking delivery this week. So, what do you put as your in-service date. My account said it has to be the date of delivery, not the date I paid the deposit a couple of years ago, or even the date that Rivian sent me the letter last year.
Thank you. So the challenge is to find a 20inch wheel. As others have noted, the Radius is not available until February. The only wheel I can find for <500/wheel is a MSW from TireRack. If anyone has any other suggestions, please share them.
I also have 21" stock wheels. If I understand correctly, you are saying that the Hancock winter I*pikeX 275/60R 116T XL mounted on a Radius WI35 wheels will have the same overall diameter and not require re-programming. I am in Salt Lake and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with...
