FIRST LOOK - Rivian Drive Modes Reimagined
Переглядів 9 тис.9 місяців тому
The Rivian over-the-air software update (OTA 2023.38.0) is the biggest software change since launch. This update reimagines the drive modes and eliminates "Towing" as a drive mode and instead adds towing info across multiple drive modes. Rivian is also bringing lots of data to the screen making the Rivian feel most like a utility vehicle. #rivian #R1T #R1S

Rivian R1S Road Trip! (part 1) - My ESSENTIAL GEAR
As a Tesla shareholder, RJ is an awesome CEO. I have just invested in Rivian because of RJ, and reduced my Tesla holding.
Is this a safe space? 😏🤭
Cost cutting again😮
We have a Tesla but it will be our last Tesla. Look forward to doing business with RJ in the not so distant future. Would be nice to have a car with 360 view and a rain sensor.
I am glad steve o is doing well
Just another Rivian that people won’t buy. Good thing Volkswagen gave them 5 billion. Now it will take another year to go broke.
great information. that 2 miles / kw is not so great huh. i hope the R2 efficiency is similar to Model y
Can you show me a demo of you opening the Tree House ?
is that steve-o?
Amazing how Steve-O reinvented himself after Jackass
RAPG in the house!
Tesla fanboy
And the model 3 is so boring to look at
So what about all the people who thought that tesla will go bankrupt
Tesla is so much better than this rubbish r2
Tesla fanboy
He’s a genius. I own an R1S. 🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇵🇸🇬🇾
Great vehicle 👌 👏 Rivian has bright future
😍😍
Seeing it like this it looks about size of a Bronco?
Thanks for sharing this chill ride-along and discussion...
I thought that Romain Dumas was the top driver
Wish they had the Tesla standard charging ports. Guess that might come out end of year or early next.
Yeah, not sure if we’ll see them on the R1. There may be some hardware reasons for that. But definitely on the R2 and beyond. That’s just me speculating though, but I will say that the R2 does have the new NACS port.
so is that a gen 2 r1s in your garage?
Anytime I hear someone say Gen 2, I think of penguins😂
Amazing! Huge respect! I'll be scared forming bricks even at speed limit. Over 100? Forget about it.. Love my R1SQ Good luck at the race!
LETS GO TEAM GARDNER NICHOLS AND RIVIAN!!!🎉
Super cool video! Thanks Scott!
Thanks!
Good luck Gardner and Team Rivian! Awesome!
Awesome video!
Thanks!
wow, and to think all I do with my R1T is drive to town! Okay, sometimes I haul stuff or pull things. But it can do that!!
Yeah. And lots more!
Im on the edge of buying one R1S, but unsure on two things? How low it could be driven? the garage dor on my work is only 2,0mtrs on a slope, son probably have like 1,85mts effectively. The second quiestion is if the navigation systema would work overseas (South America)... I have a tesla here, it works perfectly fine, updates, GPS, connectivity.. but the Built in Navigation. Would the rivian be the same?
I think you’d be fine with the height limit, but double check the specs online that talk about exact site measurement against your garage door. About the overseas navigation, no idea for sure, but my gut tells me it wouldn’t work all that well. I don’t have first-hand experience with that though.
Very cool! I love the joy Gardner brings and the combo of the terrain and the vehicle!! Go team Rivian.
Nice video
What a TREAT this was - you'll have to watch through to see if there was puking or not - but I'll say I had a good time either way. And Gardner is not just a really really cool dude, but he's a legit driver. GOOD LUCK GARDNER!! BREAK THAT RECORD!!
Gen 1.2 as others call it on the forums because customer facing the changes are small, or even decontented.
Cool dude
What basket is that over your bed?
amzn.to/3RQ8KK3 Yakima Mega Warrior cage - I love it.
Great job Steve-O
Nice ride my friend
All of the color choices are beautiful, How do you choose ?
Exactly
What the deal with heads up display?
I haven’t heard anything about that.
Insane road conditions!!!!
He gives me Steve-O vibes…. Anyone else?
RJ looks like a sober Steve-O
Handle for the door is for emergency purposes, similar to Tesla
They could have at least given the test doors some shades. Like it’s such an easy update that every single suv out there has
Sorry for photobombing one of your shots. 🤣 Some really nice improvements. Not enough to make me want to upgrade but very nice. I can't wait for the next software update for the Gen1 R1. One thing that is disappointing is that we're hearing that we can't control the lighting on the Gen 1 like they're doing on the Gen2. The Gen 1 has RGB lights, so that makes no sense.
They backtracked on that and will have that control in Gen 1
Too bad they didn't bring the new steering wheel controls to the R1S Gen 2 that they previewed in the R2 and R3 models. I guess that will be a Gen 3 upgrade?
I thought about that as well. Yeah, the new R2 steering is pretty sweet. I guess they need to keep something for that release!
Thank you for this content on the Gen2
Thanks for watching!
Rivian told us the camp speaker will work if you charge it in your house using a laptop power cord. Then it plays for 3 hours. Then recharge. The R1s don't provide enough power to the camp speaker to fully charge it to play properly.
😮
