OCEAN COAST Rivian Interior Photos

[CharonPDX]

Welp... Ocean Coast has lots its bleached wood. (Per Rivian official Tweet)

I know some will prefer this, but to me, that was one of the biggest selling points of Ocean Coast.

I definitely liked the lighter wood look better, but I still like this more than FE or BM.

Yep I liked the lighter wood as well but this is at least better than the BM. Just a little sad i waited this whole time to not get what I wanted.

I like the black wood with OC SO much better. So much I actually may change to OC now. Really liking it.

Next person that takes pics of OC like this ought to have a white sheet of paper with them so we can see how close to white / gray the seats actually are.

You can tell the white balance is off on all the images. Just take a look at the screen and see how yellowish it is.

The OC is pale light gray.

The OC is pale light gray.

From what I recall the screen color is off in real life.

I’m starting to think of the new OC as Ocean Contrast. I like the pale gray (almost white) upholstery and headliner, but to my eye on screen it almost looks harsh because of the severity of the contrast. The black speaker grills add to the effect in even more places and I wish they’d make the speaker grills the same satin silver as the door pulls and use them in all colors to simplify stock.

I think the lighter wood of original OC helped soften the transition from the very light pale gray to the almost black charcoal of the common pieces of the interior.

Ocean Coast is going to be the most challenging interior to maintain due to all the stitching and perforation in the light colored seats. Wiping any dirt or grease will likely result in it visibly getting wedged in these crevices and may be tricky to remove with regular cleaning methods. I expect treating the seats with a ceramic product would help, but I personally have some health concerns about dousing a hot passenger cabin with chemicals that get more or less zero safety oversight. Obviously the black and green seats will have the same issues, but should be less visible. For us, the speaker grills and ultra white steering wheel are a minor annoyance that just tip the scale into not liking it enough to deal with the added risk / effort. Will likely be going for FE instead, which now feels worth it due to the brown wood.

Would you ever buy the white interior in the Tesla?

The white in the 3 and Y are relatively easy to maintain because they aren't perforated and have no stitching. Also the seats are SO bright, that they match the white plastic trim really well.
