Rivian just rolled out a new software update for both Gen 1 and Gen 2 vehicles, bringing a mix of fun and functional improvements. One standout is the new Spotify DJ feature, an AI-powered guide that curates music just for you and even offers commentary on the tracks and artists—available under Media > Spotify > DJ. On the driver-assist side, Rivian has improved how your vehicle gets real-time updates about road construction and speed limits, helping features like Highway Assist perform more smoothly. There are also a handful of quality-of-life upgrades, like your driver profile now saving navigation and display preferences, recent Apple Music and Spotify searches sticking around across profiles, and a slew of bug fixes—from Alexa volume issues to faster infotainment app loading.
