RIVIAN SUSPENSION SOFTWARE UPDATE 2023.34.0 & OUR STORY

EV Channels Review

This video details the Rivian Suspension Software Update 2023.34.0, focusing on its impact on ride comfort and handling. The reviewer finds the update significantly improves low-speed comfort, making transitions and rough roads much more tolerable. While acknowledging some online mixed reviews, the reviewer personally prefers the new 'soft' setting, describing it as more natural and predictable, even noting a slight increase in body roll that feels manageable. The reviewer also shares a personal anecdote about transitioning from Tesla to Rivian ownership. The update is praised for enhancing the driving experience, particularly in the 'All-Purpose' and 'Standard' ride height settings. The reviewer suggests that owners who dislike the new 'soft' setting try 'stiff,' as it now feels closer to the old 'soft' setting, while the new 'soft' is exceptionally comfortable. The 'Sport' mode is noted for its responsiveness and power, though its suspension tuning is less clear.
