2025.38
This software update is still in beta testing and hasn’t been released to the general public. Features may be added or removed, and the release notes are subject to change before the final version is available.Climate Improvements
- Climate Hold is a new setting that runs the climate system for a set amount of time after you exit the vehicle, maintaining cabin temperatures while you’re away, and keeping any remaining occupants comfortable. Use the Rivian mobile app to monitor climate status, the Hold time remaining, and to turn Hold on or off.
- DANGER: Never leave a child unattended in the vehicle.
- NOTE: When leaving pets alone in the vehicle, use Pet Comfort instead of Hold as it has specific behaviors meant to keep your pets as safe and comfortable as possible.
- Auto cabin ventilation is a new setting that automatically blows ambient air into the parked vehicle on warm days to help prevent extremely high temperatures in the cabin. This feature is on by default, and notifies you in the Rivian mobile app when it’s running. You can turn it on or off in the mobile app.
- Auto air recirculation now appears as an option when you cycle through the Air Recirculation settings in the center display. When in Auto air recirculation mode, the system automatically switches between pulling in outside air and recirculating cabin air to optimize comfort, cabin air quality, and energy efficiency.
Plug and Charge Available with Electrify America and IONNA Chargers
For Electrify America and IONNA chargers, you can now:
- Check live charger status and speeds on the in-vehicle Navigation map.
- Automatically plug and charge (with a valid credit card attached to your Rivian account).
- Filter for IONNA chargers and select them in Trip Preferences > Preferred Networks.
App Launcher Improvement
To enhance convenience and usability, you can now more easily customize the app launcher at the bottom of the center display. By default, your favorite and most recent apps appear. Choose More to access other apps, and press and hold an app icon to move it to a different location in the launcher.
Additional Improvements
- Added the ability to press and hold Volume on the bottom of the center display to mute and unmute the current audio source.
- Navigation
- Updated zoom behavior, including adjusted the zoom in on maneuvers to show more of the map.
- Improved traffic and incident updates for trips with multiple stops.
- Camping
- Improved leveling by allowing you to reposition the vehicle during the leveling process without having to reset the ride height. Leveling now pauses when you shift into D (Drive) or R (Reverse) answer slowly move the vehicle, and it resumes when you shift the vehicle back into P (Park). (Thanks, u/Adorable_Wolf_8387, for the report.)
- Reduced the amount of time it takes for the vehicle to enter and exit the leveling process.
- Gear Guard
- Fixed an issue that caused a five-minute delay when you opened the Incidents tab, clicked on an Incident notification, and waited for the list of available Incident videos to appear.
- Fixed an issue that prevented the system from identifying a USB device after a sleep cycle, requiring you to remove and reinsert the device.
- Fixed an issue that prevented the Gear Guard animation from playing on the center display while video recording was in progress.
- Fixed an issue related to casting certain Digital Rights Management (DRM) protected content. A re-acceptance of Google Cast terms is required as part of the fix.
- Fixed a rare issue that caused the alarm to sound when passive entry was used to open the liftgate.
- Fixed an issue that caused the garage door pairing menu notification to appear on top of the reverse camera screen.
- Fixed a rare issue that caused the Phone app to show a Sync Contacts prompt in the center display prior to allowing a call through Bluetooth.
- Battery and charging
- Improved 12 V battery health detection, which now includes in-vehicle and mobile app notifications to alert you when the 12 V battery needs to be replaced.
- Fixed a rare issue that caused the displayed range and state-of-charge (SOC) to quickly increase a few percentages at charging start.
- Fixed a rare issue that caused incorrect charging costs to appear in the Rivian mobile app.
- Fixed an issue that prevented the vehicle from charging over the weekend when the custom charging schedule was set as Weekdays.
