I was at the Costa Mesa service center today. I saw a room full of people with telephones and computers and thought it was clearly some sort of call center. So based on all I read above I guess It's confirmed!
Wait! Not enabled all roads!? Only works on mapped roads!? This car keeps losing tech from when it was first announced.
My Volvo XC90 LKAS and ACC works on all roads since 2017! I ordered R1S May of 2019 and am awaiting my delivery date... But this may be a deal killer as I regularly use those...
I won't buy Cadillac, but I'm extremely disappointed in some of the decisions that Rivian has made. They put out a lot of hype and now they're not coming through in some areas that I found brought me to put down a deposit.
For example, for years they've been saying over 400 miles in the SUV...
Do we know what operating system Rivian is using in their infotainment system yet?
I'm very curious about text messaging and perhaps voice commands to read and send text messages.
Also, with the new RCS chat messaging that Google has released for Android phones there are some compatibility...
I emailed Rivian customer service and asked them when I would be able to see the colors in person to make an educated final decision on color and they replied:

This could impact production, and worries me a bit when it comes to maintenance / repair after purchase...

I thought the same thing... Then I think back a couple years and I decided to buy a Rivian because I loved the look of the SUV and the color green I kept seeing. I just don't find myself attracted to Launch Green like I am Forest Green. If you want to be recognized as an early buyer order...
R1S Launch Green and Forest Edge... Although may change from Launch Green to Forest Green so basically all Green Forest ;)
From what I'm reading/seeing, Launch Green can take on grey, brown or green depending on the light and I want a Green SUV.
I configured my R1S with Launch Green exterior and Forest Edge interior, but now I'm having second thoughts on the Launch Green and may change to Forest Green....
Is that the same truck throughout the video? Initially a little green looking then last seconds clearly brown... Hm this may cause me to change to Forest Green...
WENT ALL GREEN!
Configured Launch Edition
Launch Green exterior (may change to Forest Green)
Forest Edge interior with 7 seats
Delivery August 2021... $79,500
Want to add electrochromic roof and roof rack/cross bars
May upgrade battery to 400+ mile, if it becomes available. I understand doing...
I didn't see the ability to upgrade the battery on the R1S, so are you assuming $10k for that (based on truck cost) or did I miss something in the configurator?
