? Multiple R1T spotted inside Bellevue Rivian Service Center

[Deleted member 2175]

Someone said the Rivian does not do auto shows...anyone know why, the Seattle Auto Show starts Nov. 11. I have talked to many people who do not know what a Rivian is, what better way to let people know what your product is by showing it and answering their questions...think you would sell alot more cars....I know... they have lots of orders already.

My guess, covid.

My guess, covid.

No, outside of very early on at LA 2018 and NY 2019, they have never done auto shows. And Rivian isn't alone in this. More and more legacy auto makers had begun skipping out on the auto shows well before covid. Volvo as early as 2015. Rivian was hosting their own events up until covid and have recently been able to start those back up again.

Automakers are increasingly opting to host their own events or online reveals rather than fight to upstage each other for the limited attention spans of consumers during auto shows.

154 predicted miles at 70% SoC...assuming a linear curve, that's only 220 miles of range. I hope it is calculating that based off of recent consumption and the owner was flooring it...
I know it's been talked about elsewhere, but they really need to do a consumption graph and state KW state of charge.


And, just so this post isn't completely off topic, drive by the Bellevue SC last night and caught a glimpse of the Blue R1T (no pics)

It seems to change by recent usage and definitely changes with drive mode. Another owner used 78% over 200 miles to 75mph the other day.

That R1T is in Sport mode. It's probably calculated accordingly.

Official statement is they're in a different phase of their business and want to refocus their priorities on deliveries. That's what they gave for their last pull-out anyways.

Given the pics of trucks loading or unloading, anyone planning to drive by the service center today? I'm thinking about it to get a better idea of colors in person, but am hoping to get confirmation there are vehicles that are visible before playing 405 roulette.

Charging.

AKA all the green you're saving by driving electric ?

My guess, covid.

Would be a huge production setback if the Trucks caught the VID. ???‍?

Testing my memory for which owner that was but I'll try to find it.
