  1. Rivian offering preorder price difference vouchers for remaining price protected pre-order holders

    You wrote that later in the tread. Sorry if I reacted too quickly.

  2. Rivian offering preorder price difference vouchers for remaining price protected pre-order holders

    And as a R1 owner who got his truck in 2022 and don’t give a f
k about others who couldn’t, even thought they wanted it. Bravo


  3. Rivian offering preorder price difference vouchers for remaining price protected pre-order holders

    If I can't get a quad motor in the shop matching most of my config (colours and wheels), I will cancel the order... and the other I placed for the R2. If it takes them years to ramp up R2 production as they did for R1, people should just wait to see what is inventory when they are available so...

  4. Rivian offering preorder price difference vouchers for remaining price protected pre-order holders

    Many (like myself) didn't drag their feet and are just awaiting Rivian to finally open the service center that was supposed to be operational months ago (before the end of 2023 as they claimed until recently and still not delivering cars in Quebec). How could we have dragged our feet when they...

  5. Thousands of invites coming to R1T reservation holders to configure + take delivery in 1-4 months after order confirmation (3/10/23 News)

    I was thinking of ordering again the same R1T I already have ordered to see if I would get it more quickly with the higher pricing and confirm that the SC location excuse is BS... you answered that question. Thanks.

  7. Best configuration for fastest delivery?

    The best configuration is to have no configuration fixed at the post March 2021 price hike


  8. Thousands of invites coming to R1T reservation holders to configure + take delivery in 1-4 months after order confirmation (3/10/23 News)

    There was around 75k preorders a year ago minus 25k trucks delivered last year so they got 65k new orders in the last year to get to the current 115k book of preorders (latest disclosure). If they maintain 50-65k new orders per year and can only build 50-62k trucks this year, they can focus on...

  9. Update: Your Max Pack Preorder - R1T’s Max Pack only available w/ Dual-Motor. Unavailable w/ Quad-Motor starting 2023

    After rethinking about this, it make sense. If it’s only a software update, range could be exactly the same in both version assuming you don’t use the extra power. The effective range will be lower only if you drive more aggressively using the additional 100hp. That is actually what I...

  10. Update: Your Max Pack Preorder - R1T’s Max Pack only available w/ Dual-Motor. Unavailable w/ Quad-Motor starting 2023

    A better comparison is Tesla YLR with or without Boost will results in different effective range With the exact same components and just an OTA update. So my point was that there must be some hardware changes between the two versions. May be not the battery you’re right.

  11. Update: Your Max Pack Preorder - R1T’s Max Pack only available w/ Dual-Motor. Unavailable w/ Quad-Motor starting 2023

    Other that the weight differential the power consumption is obviously greater with two motors than one


  12. Update: Your Max Pack Preorder - R1T’s Max Pack only available w/ Dual-Motor. Unavailable w/ Quad-Motor starting 2023

    It’s not what they say in the letter: « Max pack with standard Dual-Motor AWD will have a target range around 400 miles, 600 HP and 0-60 mph as quick as 4.5 seconds.Âč We will also offer an enhanced version of Dual-Motor AWD with the same range that increases horsepower to 700 HP and lowers...

  13. Update: Your Max Pack Preorder - R1T’s Max Pack only available w/ Dual-Motor. Unavailable w/ Quad-Motor starting 2023

    Can’t be as they both offer same range... There must be more battery capacity otherwise range would be lower with more power ?

  14. Max Pack delayed to 2024 according to configurator / email 😔

    If the Max Pack need more engineering, why are they saying a dual motors Max Pack will start shipping in 2023 ? The extra batteries were going to be fitted under the back seats, aren’t they ? How can 2 less motors makes such a difference that they can fit the batteries for the Max Pack ? If...

  15. Using a 48a Tesla wall connector to charge an R1T

    I see that your question wasn’t answered. I have the same question and would really appreciate if current owners of R1T using the TeslaTap MINI could say if this is correct. As per TeslaTap website: We have noticed that many of the Rivian and RAV4 EVs have an oversized ground pin and the...

  16. Had my First Drive... very impressed, but will now almost certainly cancel my pre-order.

    Absolutely
 and this easy to understand why as 3PMSF tires have the threads to provide traction but lack the softer compound that stays soft in freezing conditions. 4 seasons tires compound becomes as hard as an hockey puck in these conditions.

  17. Had my First Drive... very impressed, but will now almost certainly cancel my pre-order.

    Triple-peak snowflake tires will have a good traction in snow BUT be are still very slippery on ice under braking and even just side winds at cruising speed. Getting dedicated winter tires if you drive in winter conditions frequently is the only way to drive at speed in confidence

  18. Had my First Drive... very impressed, but will now almost certainly cancel my pre-order.

    To your first point, EV’s owners will stick to them longer than ICE cars on average because they are continuously updated over the air. I have a Model Y which is 2.5 years old and still almost identical to a brand new version because new features are added OTA frequently. Regarding your concern...

  19. Updated Canadian Delivery Windows

    Ordered my R1T in October 2021 with max pack and was given a delivery window in second half of 2023. Anyone saw an update on certification of the trucks in Canada ? This was disclosed in the IPO prospectus but I didn’t see any update since then: Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards...

  20. Van Price Increase?

    « Given the lead time necessary for the production of vehicles, the EDV Agreement contemplates Logistics’ (Amazon) provision to us of longer-term order forecasts and medium-term order plans for planning purposes, all of which are non-binding and subject to amendment or modification.
