Rivian Announces The Yosemite Charging Outpost

[Robin]

Rivian could buy the mostly unused V2 Tesla site in West Yellowstone. It is not suited for Tesla demographics and the wires are already in the ground. (Save one in case a Tesla shows up.)

Waisted spare there , better to have more Rivian chargers…?

Yellowstone had 4,501,382 recreation visits, a 37% increase from 2022, and was the fifth most visited national park in the country.

And that is NOT a RAN adventure location ?!!!

Elon and/or RJ need to fill that massive DC charging hole.

I thought it was right before the entrance. At least, we can now go across the park and charge at both ends

They installed a bunch of Rivian charging stations at the Wawona Hotel store lot at the south end of Yosemite but they are all currently bagged. Hopefully they will open those soon too.

Nice.

This is great but Rivian needs to install RAN chargers in Mammoth Lakes, CA a destination almost as popular as Yosemite. It is prohibitive to go back down to Bishop to charge and Yosemite/Lee Vining is an hour away. Peeps stay in Mammoth for weeks at a time for their adventures. Thx JB

What you just described are what waypoint chargers are for. No need for expensive DCFC if you're going to spend long periods of time at a location.

But that is not there in Mammoth either. A bunch of Tesla chargers

Just got an email that Rivian unlocked this station to all EVs in celebration of National Parks Week. Get in free to the park.
