Yes I’ve heard it mentioned before they’ll be adding a rear wiper.I don’t do the dirty on my rear glass.
But how, with the roll-down rear glass? My first thought when I saw that feature at the reveal was “oh no, did they pick this over a rear wiper?”Yes I’ve heard it mentioned before they’ll be adding a rear wiper.
We'll see soon enough. No sense speculating. Aren't there cars out there already with roll down glass and wiper?But how, with the roll-down rear glass? My first thought when I saw that feature at the reveal was “oh no, did they pick this over a rear wiper?”
I lived with an Ioniq 5 for a little under a year, and it was really shitty not having a rear wiper on our salty/slushy/muddy/dusty VT roads. I hope you’re right!
Toyota 4Runners have had the roll down rear glass and wipers for decades. 5th and now 6th Gens have them tucked up under the spoiler.We'll see soon enough. No sense speculating. Aren't there cars out there already with roll down glass and wiper?
It can be attached below the glass. The Toyota 4 runner has always had a roll down rear window and has always had a rear wiper.But how, with the roll-down rear glass? My first thought when I saw that feature at the reveal was “oh no, did they pick this over a rear wiper?”

This seems like a cool solution, but I hope Rivian can do it better, because all I see online are issues with 4Runner rear wipers not working and the drop-down glass not closing properly.Toyota 4Runners have had the roll down rear glass and wipers for decades. 5th and now 6th Gens have them tucked up under the spoiler.
Older gens generally had them mounted onto the rear door panel itself.

I had a trunk monkey, was great for emergency unlock, security, etc., but just remember to feed it.You will have to buy a monkey. Buy lots and lots of bananas. Give the money a bucket and a squeegee. And use the bananas to train monkey on how to use bucket and squeegee.
Yeah, we had a 4th Gen, loved it, Limited AWD had the optional V8.Toyota 4Runners have had the roll down rear glass and wipers for decades. 5th and now 6th Gens have them tucked up under the spoiler.
