Just curious. How does RivianTrackr get access to the release early? Is it/he part of Rivian conpany?
No, Jose does not work for Rivian. I'm sure he and a few others were granted early access so that they could make videos like this one to cover all the changes and spread the word.

As an FYI. The in car infotainment PCB was not updated for gen 2. So they feel the computing power is plenty strong.
I was under that impression also. But a slide from the Investors Day thread appears to indicate otherwise. Three boards consolidated to one and a big increase in camera processing.

Which, by the way sort of dispenses the idea that some nameless vendor (or Rivian before release) could have simply installed a higher quality camera. Processing bandwidth, and probable the network architecture itself needed to change to support resolution and speed that we all wanted.

out of curiosity, what part of you system has a bad lag? i get occasional lag when i open a screen for the first time after an update, but don’t notice anything beyond that
I have lag every time I switch menus from audio to settings to drive modes etc. The recommended solutions of flipping through every menu after a new update or when you first start up the car doesn't fix my issue. it stays fairly consistent.

When I've posted about it, there seems to be a mix of people that have the same issue and others that do not experience much lag at all. I'm hoping the new software will make a difference.

I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I prefer the "old" (current) graphics vs. the "new" (cartoon) graphics.

I updated the phone app earlier this week and instantly regretted it when I saw the beautiful render of my R1 turn into a cartoon. Wish there was a way to roll back to the previous app version but no dice on iOS, unfortunately.

Also feel like the square box on the driver display is a big step back from the blend that they have used up until now -- particularly for navigation. That said, bring on the ride improvements, turn signal cameras, and other improvements!
100% agree

I've gotten used to the cartoon in the app and it will take only a matter of time for the vehicle BUT I hate the bubble map on the driver display. The end waterfall effect of the current map view was done beautifully. Oh well, I'll live with it while enjoying all the new features!

🤔 Definitely looks like a different PCB to me. The old one has inputs on two sides. Possible the CPU is the same but obviously this photo doesn't have enough fidelity to tell.

This riviantrackr José dude is a bit eager in my view saying “update is available now or by this afternoon”.

It will be hard to know how many are actually out there. There are less than 500 Rivian’s on Electrifi and north of 75k R1 vehicles in the wild.

It does at least give us an idea of movement.

While I appreciate the effort that goes into creating a video like this, I could do with 5 minutes fewer raving about the improved cartoons. ;)
OK, thank you for posting this. The animations are the least impressive thing to me and it’s all anyone seems to rave about. Still no native text support. WTF. I am excited about all the fixes to the suspension and other “under the hood” improvements.
