Rivian’s Post

I've talked before about Rivian's design language helping carry the brand identity, but it's just insanely awesome to see them constantly take customer feedback into consideration and continuously work to improve the experience. As I dive into the finer details of this refresh, I can see why it's being marketed as "Gen 2" of the R1 electric vehicles! Things like: - Removing roughly 1.5 miles worth of cables in each vehicle by reengineering the electronic control units, going from 17 of them to just 7, reducing about 44 pounds of weight. - Redesigning the charge light bar with 10 new sectional LED lights for improved exterior visibility of your state of charge, also serving as additional hazard lights. - Refreshing the UI to keep things new, while using Epic's Unreal Engine to render all animations, and dual NVIDIA Orin processors for autonomy and image processing. Super excited about the new R1T and R1S, but also still very optimistic and looking forward to R2, R3, and beyond!

The next gen of R1 is here!

If you know me, you know my passion for sustainability. Georgia is taking a major step towards sustainability with the opening of the new Rivian plant in the state. The electric vehicle manufacturer is set to create more than 7,500 jobs and invest $5 billion in the state. Not only will this bring economic benefits, but it will also promote environmental sustainability. Rivian's electric vehicles are designed to reduce carbon emissions and contribute to a cleaner environment. This initiative is a great example of how businesses can lead the way in promoting sustainability practices. Let's hope other companies follow in Rivian's footsteps and prioritize the planet alongside profits. #sustainability #Georgia #Rivian #electricvehicles
