    SiriusXM to Launch in Rivian Vehicles in 2024

    The major benefit of internet streaming over the satellite connection is the much better sound quality. The satellite connection is not able to provide high enough bit rate that a cellular connection can provide. My previous XM experience has always been just barely adequate sound in the music...

    How has the 2023.34.0 Update changed the ride of your Rivian? [Vote in poll]

    Great update for my S, rebound is much more controlled so going over bumps now much less jarring, overall ride is also smooth and cornering is also flatter. They have done a great job. I have the 22's.

    Finally, a good sun shade for the R1S!

    I have it installed in my R1S with the reflective layer and you can still see the sun through it but everything else is blocked. I can attest that it fitted perfectly and worked great over the weekend when it was almost 100 in Atlanta.

    New R1S owners, please enlighten us on insurance coverage

    Mine is about 810/6 months with 2500 deductible and bundled with my daughter's car and house, almost 400 dollars/6 months cheaper than GEICO (my previous insurer)

    Ride quality R1S vs R1T? Should I be worried about reviews?

    I test drove the T last year and just took delivery of my S this weekend. At first I thought the S wallowed quite a bit but turned out ride was set to soft. After changing setting, I can tell no difference except the S is quieter. I have the 22ā€™s and the ride is better than my Model S. I am...

    Delayed… again. Dec 2020 order date. Losing all faith and excitement for Rivian.

    I'm ok with the wait since it'll give me more time to save up more money. Plus more time for them to iron out all the bugs.

    Jim Chen, The Man From Rivian Who Wants to Change How We Buy Cars [Wall St Journal Article]

    I for one have not set foot in to buy anything in a car dealership since 2015 and couldn't be happier. Perhaps it's a force of habit that some people would prefer the dealership model. What makes cars different from any manufactured goods such as a smart phone that they would necessitate a...

    Test drive impressions from Tesla owner

    Iā€™ll second that with my test drive, compared to my S, thereā€™s noticeable engine noise but it is very muted and quite pleasant. The regen for me is quite a bit stronger than the S and I did not use the brakes at all coming to 4 way stops during the test drive. And once stopped, the R1 also...

    Rivian Plant Tour Video from WGLTFM

    Having just had my test drive in a R1T (I'm also a R1S pre-order), I can hopefully assure you that the R1S will be worth the wait and you will not be disappointed. Coming from a Model S, I was just amazed at the attention to details and craftsmanship of the RIT. I am not someone who goes over...

    ALEXA Voice Commands - as of Software Version 2022.7

    From experience, streaming XM sounds much better than using actual XM in cars. The satellite signal just canā€™t provide the same amount of fidelity as cellular.
