gen2

The Story: I recently took delivery of this 2025 Gen 2 R1T through a corporate settlement. While it is an incredible truck and the Gen 2 tech is impressive, the timing conflicted with a Polestar 3 I had already purchased. I’ve realized that the Rivian’s footprint is simply too large for my...

I was one of the lucky (unlucky?) few who managed to snag the R1S foamy by Hest during their recent restock. I gotta say, little bit disappointed with the fitment. I wonder if dimensions between Gen1 and Gen2 changed slightly, because for all the hype around “specially designed” it sure seems...

Brand new, unopened dark green Chilewich for gen2 R1T with black mountain interior. These mats were included with my config but not delivered to me until months later. Ended getting all weather mats and never used these. Located in the Seattle area for pickup/drop-off but also willing to ship...

Hey folks If you have a Gen2 Rivian, you've probably noticed that space on the driver side, under the shelf, that's pretty nice & spacious but hardly usable if you want to store smaller items, so I figured I'd design a frunk tray organizer so I can utilize this space. Happy to announce that...

I want to post a positive experience with Rivian service. The issue: My Gen2 R1T Dual Max dropped Rivian Fast Charge speed to 9kW (with cooling fans running loud) after 60% SOC during my road trip from LA back to SFO (onward journey the previous day had no such issues). When I stopped the...

Check out these other badges Rivian was considering before they decided on the final version. the jetpack one would have been pretty cool too.

Hello fellow Rivian owners I am happy to announce that we officially launched our Gen2 wrap which accounts for the new mirrors, bumper lip (if you have a model without the hooks) and headlights. We're also able to lower our pricing a bit so here are the offerings (we have both Gen1 and Gen2...

Hey folks I recently finished developing a cut pattern for the Gen2 headlights. Unlike the Gen1, the were PITA to get to a place where it's DIYable, but I am happy with the results. As such I just released it for anyone looking to protect their headlights with Clear PPF or protect + style with...

Initial thoughts, YMMV Heat pump seems extremely efficient. Only seeing 12 miles total lost between 11pm to 7am, HVAC at 72. Campsite 50amp 240v did well, but I had no reason to think otherwise. Did not try TT-30 Tesla mobile charger, but was prepared with converter and 14-30 adapter. Camp...

Anyone else having an issue where the USB drive will get detected and you can turn on Drivecam but it doesn't record anything? And if you make a manual recording with the button, the video file has a crossed out folder icon and won't play? Drivecam lists the drive correctly, but if you unplug...

For those of us in front license plate required states, the factory front license plate mount requires drilling holes directly in the front bumper of the R1T & R1S. ? If you don't want to have permeant holes in your bumper, be sure to instruct your delivery advisor to tell your local delivery...

This is from Facebook (not me). I am looking for confirmation or (hopefully) rejection of this: A Rivian BC guide just informed (me) that the gen 2 (2025) models will not be available in Canada until the end of the year, so "preorder price voucher will not apply as it will definitely be after...

Configure your R1S here! Great news! Slate Sky + Walnut Wood is now an available option, along with more photos. It’s priced the same as the Ocean Coast + Driftwood, yay! While there are no lease options yet, this might be a good sign that we’re getting closer to more timing and cost data. ⏳...

First off, I'm really impressed by the updates they have made to the R1 platform. It's a great effort by the Rivian team and will definitely be a good boost for the quality of the product. However, after having a night to think about it I am not so bullish on their sales figures. Pricing has...
