With 6 stations deployed, curious if anyone can share the charging curve they're getting. I see one mention on the forums of 215KW which is great.. that's over 8 miles per minute. What are others seeing in terms of charging speed, and what does the charging curve look like? I believe Rivian...
I did this math to figure out where I am in line, and it's broadly applicable to any reservation holder so figured I'd share. You can determine what # order you are for either the R1S or R1T (I'm order #14,000 or so for R1T based on a 4/25/21 reservation), and see when Rivian will have produced...
I had a convo with CS about max charging speed. I back into 170kw, say hopeful they can do 300kw based on 800v architecture. They said stay tuned, hope to impress. 170kw is unimpressive IMO, especially with the large battery. Maybe no news here, but figured interesting enough to share. Anyone...
Rivian ups the game vs Tesla in that they're including 3 120v outlets (that's the case in the R1T - do we know for the R1S?). Tesla only has 12v outlets. We know there's enough output in the gear tunnel to power a 1,440 watt induction cooktop in the camp kitchen. That's 12 amps. Do we know...
Rivian is targeting 40k production in its first "full year" which I assume is June 2021-May 2022, per a recent Bloomberg article. I think this is reasonable based on a few different frames of reference:
Frame 1, Employees: They have 1,100 employees in Normal as of April, targeting 1,800 by...
