R1 needs to be the cutting edge product and then the tech trickles down to R2, R3 etc. Need 800v or better, Meridian quality audio or better, lidar, etc. If RAD could do something like a ZR2 with lighter batteries on a R1T, lockers, etc, I would be in.
If a R2X will be on the heals and maybe...
It's not like the launch isn't a appealing, wife was hoping for an interior like the slate in R1. Going to hold to see what if anything the Gen 3 and rumored tri-motor bring. Hoping more options come once they prove this is a vehicle people want, and they are able to deliver a ton of units...
Not convinced R1 price would drop, but I think additional value would be brought to market to validate pricing.
800v architecture, new battery tech, G3 tech with more processing power than R2. Roof should change to dynamic tinting and not the obscure glass. Audio from a good OEM again.
Think...
I put up to 65k, but⦠Am looking for a tri-motor G3 with the ascend version of interior for R2. Beyond 65k I would be looking at a G3 R1T as I love my Gen 1 and wife has finally come around to driving the R1T.
Still hoping for some OEM do the audio like Meridian, but probably stuck with Rivian...
I question if this is to throw people off the timeline for release. It makes little sense to build an obsolete unit for a few months to get an earlier delivery window. I would prefer a Tri-motor so latest rumor is I have to wait anyway, but would image value of gen 2 R2 would be considerably...
Would be good for my wife as she struggles with night driving. Still have Gen 1 and love it, no major issues like others have had. Would do the purchase option but⦠Needs to be on an R1T with better battery tech, much quicker charging, and better audio (donāt need CP/AA)
Want the option of full...
Most know Tesla's value is based more on emotion that reality, what he "could" do more than what Tesla has done. There are automakers that do many things better than Tesla, and like Google, Meta, and many others, the value is data collection and not the product. Autopilot is conditioning people...
3 repairs for same issue or more than 30 days in service to be considered. You shipped vehicle to location with no service center, you are responsible for the young brothers cost to ship to Oahu. Sorry brah
Have 3 vehicles here in CO with 3 drivers. Clean records, no claims except small hail on R1T. $3300/6mos with Allstate, $4100/yr for home. All quotes were over 10k/yr for just cars so we stick with Allstate for now as we have for past 10yrs. My son stationed on Oahu with 23 Frontier Pro4x and...
Just donāt buy a Tesla and he is less rich. Donāt buy from Amazon and same things happens. We gladly had people our $$ to in turn make it that much harder on ourselves.
Follow the support small businesses model and remember RIVIAN, Lucid, etc are small business in the bigger picture. Elon...
I have no issues with the $150, advancements in a software defined vehicle requires continuous investment in your teams to create software. I do however wish Rivian and other automakers would allow us to go with our current providers for cell service. AT&T is weaker in my area than Verizon and...
Iāve got nothingā¦. Letās see⦠you bought a connected car and you want a premium connection for free?
Anyone got a spare AOL disc for the OP with the free trial option?
After previous update things were good for a few days. Played music one day using Apple Music and my roof and rear speakers seemed muted. Moved slider to rear and was about half the volume of fronts, soft reset corrected.
Now with current update, issue happened again with audio (Meridian) and...
I have to drive something, I enjoy my Rivian. Drove a Tesla, not bad but too bland on interior for me. If Rivian was not a thing I would still be in a Ram, great interiors and I need a truck. Think of the bragging rights you have for your grand kids when you tell them stories of the great...
Think of EV evolution like the cell phone. Back in 1986 I had a Diamond Tel phone that weighed a ton, had a big battery that didn't last long and cost me $800 ($2245 today's money) + $40/month ($114.80 today) for 40 min talk time. Look at your phone size and plan inclusions now. Investments were...
I have a hybrid after a Rivian, sold our R1S as wife didnāt like ride and still have R1T. Have a 24 Tundra hybrid, in a nutshell I hate it. Drive train is sloppy, jerking when going back and forth between engine on or off. Storage in the Tundra equates to the floor, center console, and glove...
