Thanks, this comment was helpful. I'm building a new house and was debating hardwire versus a plug-in NEMA 14-50 receptacle. I would hate to be dependent on an electrician if something were to go wrong with the Rivian hardwire charger at home and the Rivian needs some charging. Seems like if I...
Very exciting. To me, this membership sounds similar to what NIO is doing in China. They have their NIO Power service to charge vehicles anywhere, and their NIO House that acts like an exclusive club for owners and their families. Rivian's version sounds more outdoor and adventure related than...
I was watching this video and immediately thought about the Rivian test track at Normal. How do you think Rivian would have compared to all those vehicles? Definitely interested in seeing if Rivian would enter next year!
I can't begin to imagine what it must feel like to build a company from nothing and finally launch a product off the line.
Hope to join everyone in a Rivian in the near future!
I personally like the Rivian compass logo very much. If I had to change one part of exterior badging, I would replace the " R I V I A N" on the back with just the compass logo.
I first heard about Rivian in the middle of 2019. There was a discussion about electric vehicles and a co-worker mentioned he was going to pre-order a R1T since it was an electric pickup truck.
I pre-ordered a Launch Edition R1S, El Cap Granite, with 20" All-Terrain Wheels, and the Ocean Coast...
I had a similar question in the EPA thread, and have a picture that I took this post from @Lucanjo.
From what others have said so far, Customer Service stated this is no longer an option. Still worth imagining though!
I'm curious on what everyone's thoughts on Rivian having a center cap for its wheels to hide the lug nuts. I know Audi and Tesla has some options like that:
I think it would look nice, but I'm also not sure how that would work on all the wheel options. It appears to me like the 20"...
Thanks! I wasn't imagining it, they did exist.
If customer support stated the wheels won't have aero inserts, I wonder if that means Rivian figured out it doesn't make a significant impact on range.
Someone correct me if I was imagining this, but wasn't there 20" All-Terrain wheel with aero covers? I think I saw it in photo somewhere. Any idea if that would improve range (even if slightly) on the 20" wheels?
Regardless, I will stick with the 20" wheels just for easier replacement of tires...
Rivian is definitely making color choices difficult. I did not initially care about Limestone, but after that clip I may change my configuration again! I keep swapping between El Cap Granite and LA Silver, but all these recent clips are making me rotate between all the colors (except black and...
Close! Actually referencing Brays Bayou, so just west of Baytown in Houston. That was the closest "river" growing up. Rivian is a much better sounding word play ?
If I had to pick an ICE vehicle, I'd pick a fully loaded Genesis GV80 with three rows. This car definitely caught my eye as I walked by one in real life and the interior seems luxurious.
As for quality, I don't have any concerns for Rivian being able to match or exceed the best of the...
Thanks for the warm welcome. If you don't mind me being a little indirect and playing a guessing game, I chose my username the same way Rivan chose its name. That will give you a hint of where in Texas I'm in ;)
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to join in the fun. I reserved a Launch Edition R1S about a year ago after being on the fence about this new company for a very long time. Seeing them come out of hiding and slowly building confidence over time convinced me to put down the reservation. Also, seeing the...
Another Texan checking in, reserved an R1S about a year ago and can't wait to drive one. As we got closer to vehicle launches, I decided to start interacting with the community more.
