EV Channels Review
This livestream road trip segment of the Rivian R1T highlights its capabilities and some quirks during a journey through Arizona. The reviewer praises the truck's comfortable seats, impressive turning radius, and the functionality of its Driver+ assistance system, noting it's quieter than a Tesla Model 3. However, the charging experience reveals limitations, with the 350kW charger being software-limited to 350 amps, resulting in a peak charge of around 155kW. The navigation system is described as buggy, and the reviewer expresses frustration with the driver assistance system intermittently disabling. Despite these issues and a lost wheel cap, the reviewer reiterates their strong positive overall impression of the R1T as a daily driver and adventure vehicle, emphasizing its solid hardware and potential for improvement with software updates.
