Apple Music Now Available in the Media App

NOTE

• Vehicles with Rivian Premium Audio also include Dolby Atmos for select content. Dobly Atmos is enabled by default.

Enhancements to the Rivian audio experience will come in future updates.

High Beams Assist Now with Adaptive Option

The new High Beams Assist: Adaptive option activates high beams in low-light road conditions when the vehicle doesn’t detect street lighting or lights from the road. It also partially switches off high beams based on the vehicle traffic detected by the front camera. To enable or disable this feature, go to Settings > Vehicle > Displays and Lighting on the center display and select High Beams Assist: Adaptive.

Power Outlets Improvements

You can now choose to have power outlets turn on automatically when you enter the vehicle and turn off after you exit. Go to Energy > Outlets in the center display and select Auto. You can also:

• Use the time in conjunction with Auto option to keep the outlets on after you exit the vehicle (to help power your campsite, for example).
• Continue to use the time by itself as you have in the past.

(Thanks, LP, for the suggestion!)

Rivian Autonomy Platform Data Update Improvements

We’ve improved the Rivian Autonomy Platform data update experience. To automatically receive updates, connect your vehicle to Wi-Fi. During an automatic update, you can continue to use autonomy features. To view update progress, go to Vehicle > Shortcuts > Updates quick control on the center display.

NOTE

If the vehicle isn’t connected to Wi-Fi, you will receive a notification on the center display. The Rivian Autonomy Platform service area may be impacted.

• Infotainment
  • Disabled the incoming call panel when the phone’s voice assistant connects via Bluetooth to the vehicle speaker and microphone.
  • Added stars to the 3D cel-shaded night themes in Drive Modes and Camping.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the driver display to show rear visual alerts when the vehicle is in Drive with the rear accessory mode enabled.
  • Fixed an issue that caused 3D cel-shaded vehicle visualizations to show front bumper tow hooks on vehicles that don’t have them.
  • Improved notifications of error states that prevent the switching of drive modes.
• For Dual-Motor Standard vehicles, added a reminder notification in the center display to charge to 100% when you can to ensure optimal range estimation, charging speed, and regenerative braking.

  • Fixed an issue that turned off a previously active Wi-Fi hotspot after a vehicle restart.
