Just expect it to accelerate in reverse at full throttle all the time. At least they reduced the top speed in reverse to be something sane.
I'm fairly certain the SC can't push updates early. I know Rivian promised being able to address issues remotely with tailored immediate software updates, but I've never heard of this happening yet.
I feel like that changed in the last (or the one before) update. It might be related to the vehicle in the graphic moving around more but I remember when I picked up my R1T in late September it was easy to see the 3rd brake light come on however now due to the angle it is hard to see it as the spoiler is blocking it.
You will be notified on the display when it's available and then you can activate the update. make sure you don't have to use the truck for an hour or so.
One thing that helps is to keep a light touch on the brake pedal with your left foot while reversing. Just hard enough to let the computer know you're pushing it, but not hard enough to actually do any braking. That seems to keep the regen off while reversing, which makes the process a lot smoother for me.
Ah fun. My MINI's app shows the status of all the windows, locks, hood, trunk, etc. But you can't do anything except lock/unlock, honk the horn, flash the lights, or turn on the HVAC. Makes sense why they wouldn't want you messing with the windows.
Thanks von NeumannI don't think that percentage means what you think it means. Unless of course you daily drive your R1 and have a passenger once every three years.
My understanding is that the range improvements were incrementally implemented over several past updates. This update just fixes the guessometer calculations so that the new range is reflected on the dash. No?
Also more usable battery capacity, ie less reserve below 0%
Indeed you are right! Had to correct myself. So I agree with @martinb8, this could be a very nice update!
Have they ever actually confirmed that was either possible and/or on the roadmap?
I believe they said they were working on it in a Reddit thread.
