  1. Max Pack Battery Capacity Confirmed - 149kWh

    Hi all, just a heads up that the large pack capacity is actually 141kwh, not 135. They use INR21700-50G cells. 18.15wh new multiplied by 7776 cells. It was also confirmed by a blogger as stated on the actual pack. Fairly confident max pack is greater than 149 gross
  2. Delivery Estimate Updates Are Out! ⏱ [as of Jan 31, 2022]

    All, to provide perspective, I preordered April of 2019. I have waited anxiously for nearly four years. I think five delays of estimated dates, seeing many R1T preorder holders get their vehicles in Spring/Summer 2022. I just selected an R1S from the shop less than a week ago. Best estimate is...
  3. R1S : Oct-Dec Delivery (Now Jan-Feb or Feb-Mar 2023)

    See sig for config. anyone waiting longer than me 4/2019? In Maryland

  4. 6/25 delivery

    A little south here in Howard. I hope everything is smooth and the truck perfect! Enjoy
  5. Introducing the R1 Shop... Email Communication

    I am convinced they have zero desire to fulfill LE pre 3/1 priced preorders.
  6. Introducing the R1 Shop... Email Communication

    I believe I have the same issue. Did you call or email initially, and then assume this was chat follow-up?
  7. Introducing the R1 Shop... Email Communication

    at least you are getting emails
.I haven’t received anything for the last month it seems
  8. Introducing the R1 Shop... Email Communication

    Didn’t get either. Any R1Ss holders get emails?
  9. R1S May/June Delivery Window

    Did you guys complete a survey early on after preorder? I am 4/19 R1S and remember completing a survey that asked a number of questions. I wonder if that is part of our profile and plays a role in order priority? As an example, would an existing EV owner or more specifically a Tesla owner be...
  10. Washington DC Area Test Drives Happening

    Complete SWAG
maybe a good sign of confidence that they will hit delivery dates for us early preorder holders and are targeting those later date holders for retention purposes. I would accept without seeing in person at this point and I assume most are in this camp.
  11. Will our configs be locked now?

    Hey, I just checked my config and it still shows new pricing. I never changed/canceled. Just want to confirm others aren’t reverted back? Thx
  12. R1T & R1S Updated Pricing, Configuration, Specs. Dual Motor Now Available

    I mostly lurk but want to commiserate with the community. Pigs get fat hogs get slaughtered. I find it ironic that RJ said their approach was under promise and over deliver. Also, word of caution for engaging those playing devil’s advocate. I would bet many are Rivian paid influencers. Even if...
  13. Tick Tick Tick...

    As a R1S customer fingers crossed there is much that was learned from R1T which is easily transferable to production ramp for S. Also, no tonneau issues. Rear seats are the only thing I can think of which may cause iteration issues.
  14. Beginners' guide to EV charging?

    I think the responses here are accurate, but to be more specific I don’t think ultra cold storage of a charged battery is harmful, in fact, it may preserve it more than hot conditions. I think battery damage (dendrites) form when trying to draw current when the battery is super cold. If they...
  15. Current daily production rate

    Sorry, wasn’t caught up on thread
  16. Current daily production rate

    I would think this is a conscious decision regarding plastic waste material - which I think is great assuming it is prepped locally prior to delivery
just my two cents
  17. R1T Towing Range Sneak Peek — 44 Miles of Predicted Range with 37% Battery Remaining

    Didn’t a Rivian employee state that they needed to put the vehicles on a diet? I think you’ve hit on a critical issue they may have encountered with the max pack configuration. It never made sense to me why the max pack wasn’t prioritized ahead of large pack. What doesn’t add up is why the...
  18. ? Rivian Sends Delivery Window E-Mail. What’s Your Dates? => Vote in Poll!

    This
if they haven’t learned their lesson and go over these it will be shocking. I assume these are conservative and hopefully don’t discount cancellations. Although probably few cancellations at this point.
  19. So who is in the DMV Area

    Hello all, we still thinking that service will be out of an unbranded warehouse location? I am hoping that service in our area won’t be the holdup which moves us back in priority. Seems surprising given affluence and population that our location isn’t well on its way to being built out?
