Navigation Improvements

We’ve made the following enhancements:

  • Improved the navigation search experience.
    • Updated the search with Google Maps to show an auto-complete suggestion as you enter a word. Select the auto-complete suggestion to see the search results.
    • Added complete addresses of locations and the search terms you used to recent search results.
    • With Connect+, added place details, such as photos, from Google Maps to points of interest so you can be better informed about potential destinations.
  • Increased the accuracy of traffic data and improved route color-coding.
  • Integrated trip preferences with the navigation settings for greater ease of use so you can access trip preferences at any time.
  • Made route previews available while you change trip preferences during a drive.

Enhanced Auto Mode for Cabin Climate

When the climate system is in Auto mode, the fan speed control now has three options: Low, Medium, or High. Also, if you change the fan speed, the climate system remains in Auto mode to keep the cabin climate comfortable.

Color Themes for Accent Lighting

You can now customize the color theme of the accent lights. Go to Settings > Vehicle > Displays and Lighting. Choose the current theme, and more options appear. Select a theme to preview it and hear its corresponding audio, which you can mute. When the accent lights are turned on, you can adjust the brightness.

Additional Improvements

  • Apple Music
    • Fixed an issue that caused incorrect artwork to appear for a track.
    • Fixed an issue that displayed an unnecessary “internet connection” error message when you entered the vehicle.
    • Made improvements to the stability of the app.
  • In Audible, fixed a rare issue that caused audiobooks and podcasts to overlap on the Home screen.
  • Reduced the lower limit of the Pet Comfort temperature setting to 63ºF (17ºC). You can set these lower temperatures on the center display or in the Rivian mobile app version 2.13.0 or later.
    (Thanks to the “Out of Spec” pets for the feedback!)
  • While not in Park, your vehicle can now use your phone’s Wi-Fi hotspot for internet connectivity. Also fixed an issue that occurred while tethering from a mobile hotspot.
  • Added support of special characters (non-ASCII or not-UTF-8) in the wireless network name or SSID for Wi-Fi connectivity. (This excludes tab, newline, and carriage return characters.)
  • Added the entry lights status, on or off, to the vehicle in the Camping app.
  • Improved the reliability of the Gear Guard app. Also fixed an issue that kept videos from appearing or loading properly.
  • If enabled, Car Wash mode now remains enabled after the vehicle sleeps.
  • Fixed an issue that caused charging rates to differ slightly on the center and driver displays.
  • Improved rendering of your Rivian vehicle on the driver display. Also added translucence to tall objects when detected behind your Rivian vehicle.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the Towing icon to overlap the Drive Mode icon on the driver display.
  • Fixed a very rare issue that temporarily froze certain areas of the driver display.
