  1. R2 overhead window switches: backwards?

    i would agree it would be more intuitive if the same switch was reversed so the lift was upward rather than downward
  2. R2 overhead window switches: backwards?

    Researching this - apparently the federal government has enforced this stupidity- a rule applying to side door switches for safety reasons (avoiding accidental pressure opening the window) generalizing it to apply anywhere. I think this has been unsuccessfully challenged.
  3. R2 overhead window switches: backwards?

    are you saying a toggle like is often used for overheads is illegal? Why?
  4. R2 overhead window switches: backwards?

    Yes - i thought that was confusing and stupid - first they reused the door switch - instead should have used something appropriate for an overhead with a toggle up for open and down for close. I was one of my first test drive confusions and made me curious about how competent in UI their...
  5. R2 Demo Drive - Driver's Screen Too Obstructed

    Same here - this screen should be height adjustable. Also the main screen could really use a tilt option - if you have bifocals its hard to have the entire main screen in focus. On tesla there are some after market kits to allow it to be tilted more toward the driver. I also notice that...

    I have the same question- as a Tesla driver i never see the hood and in my last r2 test drive i noticed some reflection off the HMG hood and wondered if the Esker silver could create excessive glare in bright sunlight.

    I had my second R2 test drive on Father's day. This time at the Irvine Spectrum site. I chose this location because they have demos with the 20-inch rims. Also my previous drive didnt answer all my questions - unfortunately I ended up with more questions. The ride at Specrum is pretty...

    They had the painted panel in the service center and i took it out side to compare with the LA silver in an R1. in bright light they looked similar with slightly different undertones and reflectivity - with a bit more sparkle on the R2 The 20 inch tire vs the 21 is definitely my last order...

    Agreed - although as it appears that Rivian has provided for power backup in the case of main power failure it is less worrisome - some little safety tags with instructions near the access might help for passengers- if they would even read them or remember in an emergency

    Thank you for this.. Its surprising that neither af the Service reps at the Rivian service center had any knowledge of the and couldnt find them when they went looking for it when I asked. So in an emergency you will not likely to find them fast enough unless someone briefed you ahead of time...

    I wonder if thats going to require a monthly fee to play the internet stations via the cellular service - and whether my local Public Boradcasting will be available there. Even in orange county california cellular service can really be spotty. The expert was a Rivian service rep who had...

    There is no FM radio per the Rep - it requires an internet station - so if you were playing it was likely via some internet channel. There are hooks there - too low for a dress or longer garment to not be on the floor and not wide spacing enough to put more than one or two hangers on it.

    They are right next to the clothing hooks (Not)

    Where was the emergency release - I asked 2 reps abuout this at the drive and both were unaware of any? One even tore out the inside plastic on the left front door looking for it?

    A long time Tesla owner'd first R2 ride. I have owned hybrid cars since the earliest Prius and still own a 2008 nearly one of its kind GMC Yukon Hybird Denali which I treasure, but like me, is due for retirement. I have owned a first gen Chevy Bolt, a 2019 Tesla Model 3, and my daily drive is...
