Correct. I too, am betting the switchover to NACS is about to happen.This is a sign that R1’s with NACS are coming very soon!

I have an adapter but have never had to use it. I dislike Elon so much I’m happy to use EVgo or pretty much anything that doesn’t support that guy. Has worked out fine so far.Bad move imo. Probably cost the $40. Sell a car you can’t fill up. Wtf
When R1s start being delivered with built in NACS ports, do you think Rivian will include the CCS -> NACS adapter for free? Would be awkward if Rivians can't even charge at their own Rivian Adventure Network chargers without having to pay for an adapter.Correct. I too, am betting the switchover to NACS is about to happen.
By the time that happens, they’ll convert RAN to NACS. And it won’t happen overnight. So folks will need to buy adapter. They will need to anyway if they want flexibility to charge at legacy EA, EVgo, etc..When R1s start being delivered with built in NACS ports, do you think Rivian will include the CCS -> NACS adapter for free?

You can definitely “fill up” without a Tesla NACS adapter.Bad move imo. Probably cost the $40. Sell a car you can’t fill up. Wtf
I am not sure on that one. Tesla does but who knows what Rivian’s plans areWhen R1s start being delivered with built in NACS ports, do you think Rivian will include the CCS -> NACS adapter for free?

Man, if the switchover comes before quad motors start shipping, I'm canceling my deposit. I don't need the NACS complication in my life when I'm already invested in the J1772 combo.This is a sign that R1’s with NACS are coming very soon!
I’m guessing yes, they will provide the inverse adapter free of charge. But that is just a guess.When R1s start being delivered with built in NACS ports, do you think Rivian will include the CCS -> NACS adapter for free?

I doubt Tesla gave them any adapters for free and I also doubt they will switch to NACs mid-refresh.So, Tesla only gave them so many free ones, eh? Or does this mean Rivian is now shifting production to NACS cars? Or both?
Not surprising. As Rivian is poised to exceed 5000 deliveries per month, optional Tesla charger adapter sales could potentially bring in over 1.1 million dollars in additional revenue each month. In California there are so many public chargers that for me, and many others, using Tesla chargers will be unlikely, unless traveling out of California on a long road trip.

Later this month, Rivian will stop allocating a free NACS adaptor with a Rivian purchase.
THIS DOES NOT IMPACT ALREADY PURCHASED VINS! Current owners will still receive their adaptor by the end of the month if they haven’t already.
