RAN Charging Costs are now live! (at certain stations)

j.t.sexton · Nov 8, 2023

Looks like charging costs are live for RAN sites in Virginia, at least in the app. I feel like this is fair pricing

Breezewood and Hagerstown still showing free in my app.

Yeah that’s very reasonable. FWIW, I think idle charge should be higher after grace time.

COdogman · Nov 8, 2023

Seems reasonable. I agree the idle charges should be higher to encourage people to get moving.

The ones in Michigan are inconsistent, and this particular one says flat $0.00 instead of free. Wonder if updating the pricing is just a manual process and I caught this one in the middle of being updated. Interesting that they could have a flat fee too.

It's the same unit energy cost as Electrify America Pass +, and without the monthly fee. Given the reliability and speed of RAN chargers, I will gladly pay this.
I'll be hitting Breezewood PA RAN next week on my way back to CO.

Looks like the only RAN charging currently in the state of Colorado is Salida, same $0.36/kwh. The rest are still free.

I see $0.36/kWh at every RAN in Colorado now, on the Rivian app on my phone

Had to close and restart app. Now all RANs in my area show 36c kwh.

They were showing free the first time but second time I checked they show a cost.

Still this is a great price and if they keep the chargers working with 99% uptime and full speeds instead of derating them they should do really well.

I do wonder if this membership pricing as they keep mentioning a membership but haven't implemented it yet.

You’re right. Probably were updating them as I looked!

Weird. I closed, signed out and back in and CO RANs still show free.

Its a great price until they open them to all EVs. Then you're fighting Bolts for the same rate EA charges. I'd love to see a rate for Rivians and a rate for all others that helps deter the use of non-Rivians.

Agreed. It would also be nice for them to reintroduce the Rivian subscription they were touting. It would be nice to have an all-in-one bundle for LTE, cheaper charging, and other features.

Have three tiers for RAN: non-Rivian, Rivian, Rivian premium. ?

100% I also would really like to see different rates for when a vehicle is above 90% on a DCFC. No reason when all units are in use to have someone plugged in charging to get that last 10%.

I also think just like gas cars EVs should show max DCFC rates on the door panel or even on the little flip down tabs. It would make things clear when you purchase and when you go and charge. Yes I know things can change after purchase but saying 50-100, 100-150, or 150+ inside might help push some 150 max vehicles off the 350 chargers.
