Rivian Subscription Services - A Look At What's Coming?

[Spaceball1]

Also I wouldn’t be shocked if they charge for app connections via cellular, like vehicle tracking, remote start etc. I hope they don’t for remote start at least, but our KIA does charge for that and it sucks.

For me, adding a browser is key to getting a slicker AA/CP workaround. They’ve been implementing this for a while on Teslas, where it’s basically a Raspberry Pi based device that you link into through the wifi and browser. It’s come a long way and I didn’t get a chance to use it when I had a Tesla but been reading good things. If Rivian is setup with a Browser, it ought to be almost if not plug and play. This can enable CarPlay on the screen and without any subscriptions.

I wouldn't be surprised if they locked down the browser to when we're in park.

I was just thinking the same thing.

Is no one going to ask what the hell this is about?

I can't read a text on my screen or adjust my seat memory, but they're adding GAMES?!

Im amazed it took me going 4 pages in and youre the first to mention this. I agree 100% on both your points.

So is everything free still?
I tried to understand what these features may cost currently, but nothing is clearly explained so I turned the hotspot on to see if I would get a notification.
I have had the truck a month now and still know so little.
