Does anyone know how to add live traffic info to the R2 nav?

You first have to create a Time Machine and travel forward to your R2 delivery appointment and ask the delivery manager.

I only have an OG R1T from 2023. This is how you do it on old tech. But the R2 is way better.

Thank you. And sorry everyone, should have said R1.

Welcome to the forum...I very quickly learned three things when I started here:

• Search old posts before starting a new thread
• Read (and reread) the manual relating to your question before starting your post
• Reread your entire post, including the subject, prior to clicking "Post reply"

Everyone has been very helpful, but more so when you help yourself. I've learned a ton from the folks here - even when they're on subjects which, prior to owning our R1S, I had very little interest in.

It actually took me awhile to find that in the current user guide. I’m also using an EV Sportline CarPlay accessory screen for traffic, so I’m typically not using Rivian nav.

One more snarky comment and we are setting up road blocks.

Seriously though, the Rivian Nav indicates traffic a bit different than other systems. For instance Google Maps displays Green everywhere it has info and moving along. The Rivian only displays a red line in areas with problems and leaves the other areas empty/normal.

It would be cool if they added live weather (with radar) to the maps as an optional layer.

Methinks ABRB has that feature as a premium offering.

(Hint, Hint Rivian software devs: please port over more of ABRP’s helpful feature s00ner rather than later )

Despite being aligned with Google in numerous ways, Rivian chooses to use the crappy Mapbox SDK for its nav. Makes no sense to me, maybe a cost thing? Google Maps please and thank you.

We already know this move is in the works.

I think you did. It’s 2027, R3 deliveries are being held up by world shortage of pixie dust. The President recently passed away from being brain dead for too long and Vice President Megatron has begun human enslavement. Make sure you report in to your overseer by the end of the day.

All Hail Megatron.
