  1. OTA 2026.23 - draft release notes

    Tapping on the charging site should reveal info on number of plugs and current status. Unless I'm misremembering. As for what's around, you should be able to see that on the nav as well (though not easily while driving) or ask Rivian Assistant.
  2. R2 wheel weights (lbs) ?

    It’s a mass market car. There will be more option and soon. It’s also a much more common bolt pattern than R1. That means wheel manufacturers/brands will have easier time adapting any of their existing designs for the pattern—all that remains is adjusting for offset and brake clearance.
  3. R2 Wheels Options, Tire Sizes, Width, Offset - Hub Bore Size - 19" and 20"

    +38mm offset for all. IIRC And my mistake. You are right on widths. 8” for all except the 21”.
  4. Key FOB for R2 without Launch Package?

    Even if they’ve never used a card, Rivian’s has simple ikea-esque pictograms showing how. If they can’t understand that, they probably can’t be trusted with your car.
  5. Front suspension fail

    3/36 is for the original 12V IIRC
  6. 20" Wheels mud collector

    Just about any wheel can collect mud. It’s not the wheels, it’s usage and maintenance (lack of it).
  7. R2 wheel weights (lbs) ?

    Depends on your definition of “reasonable”. Method MR707 fits (member Dark-fx is running a set, look for his thread regarding tpms sensors and tire swap). Atomic Wheels (forum sponsor) has one or more, can also make any design you want via custom order. EV Sportline has a few. 30 and 29 sounds...
  8. Bye Bye Alexa - being retired from Rivians as of August 4, 2026

    It just occurred to me, maybe 8/4 is when 2026.23 rolls out and wipe Alexa from UI.

    Offer Wassym or RJ eternal youth and everlasting life... see if they bite.
  10. OTA 2026.23 - draft release notes

    First draft of notes are out at rivianroamer and riviantrackr. Those looking for a big update will be disappointed. https://rivianroamer.com/software-updates/2026-23 https://riviantrackr.com/2026-23/
  11. Bye Bye Alexa - being retired from Rivians as of August 4, 2026

    There is no native internet browser in the vehicle's infotainment system.
  12. Bye Bye Alexa - being retired from Rivians as of August 4, 2026

    No. If you are streaming an audio source on your paired phone, aside from basic audio controls, all other deeper level controls of the stream must be done at the phone. Similar to if you were to stream a music app or podcast that is on your computer or phone to your home stereo.
  13. Long road trip? Drive faster for less total travel time

    Same has been discussed and concluded before, before a single R2 existed. Better long distance strategy is to have shorter faster stints between stops, which also keep charging sessions shorter, and is also potentially better for battery chemistry (less SOC delta between starting and finishing %).
  14. R2 wheel weights (lbs) ?

    Gear Shop has tire and wheel weights. You might be able to find tire weights at tirerack or pages of each tire manufacturer.
