  1. Sandy Munro Tearing Down Rivian R1T Battery Pack

    Don’t forget that every time you brake with regenerative breaking you are adding to the cycles.
  2. Conserve Mode Efficiency Improved? Rivian R1T real world range on a 900 plus mile trip averaged 2.7+ miles/kWh

    I am running 2.55-2.6 mi/kWh (according to the trip computer) over a few weeks of relatively short (<10mi each way) commute and random errands in what I would consider suburban/ city outskirts driving. A bit of highway, but mostly local roads. 21” with aero covers, mostly on conserve but...

  5. Do you charge the R1T every night?

    My interpretation of this was that to maximize life, you generally leave it in the mode where it charges to 70% max unless you are on a trip. My understanding has always been, with lithium ion batteries, that the fewer cycles you have the better off you are from a capacity and longevity...
