The Rivian R1S is available as a five or seven-seat SUV, with a range over 300 miles and an available off-road upgrade if you want to take your car off the beaten track. A special Launch Edition model is also available in limited quantities. That model will arrive first in August 2021, followed by the less expensive trims in January 2022. Pricing for the R1S Explore starts at $70,000

Rivian is building its own EV charging network, but with an adventurous twist​


The Rivian network is clearly being built for Rivian customers. However, it doesn’t mean this will necessarily be a closed proprietary system like Tesla’s Supercharger network.

The two common connectors used for rapid charging are Combined Charging System (CCS) or CHAdeMO. CCS, a direct current connector that Rivian uses, is an open international standard that in recent years has gained popularity in Europe and North America.

This means that Rivian trucks and SUVs can also use any third-party CCS charging station without having to use an adapter. It also means that theoretically other electric vehicles with the CCS standard could use the Rivian network, although software could block their use.
 
A thing happened!




Looking forward to seeing the reviews, and how they look in person.

No, generally I don't follow automotive news that much, much less electric car specific news.
 
 
Enabling it feels a lot like enabling developer mode in an Android phone
