Rivian Adds IONNA and Electrify America Plug & Charge Support in 2025.38 Update

Rivian just dropped a solid charging update in their upcoming 2025.38 software release, and it’s a big one for anyone road tripping or relying on public DC fast charging.

The IONNA network is officially being added to Rivian’s built-in navigation and mobile app. That means you’ll soon be able to select IONNA chargers directly alongside Rivian Adventure Network and other options when planning your route. Considering IONNA’s growing footprint across major interstates, this will make long-distance trips a lot easier for R1 owners.

Electrify America is also getting smarter inside Rivian’s UI. The update brings real-time charger availability and charging speeds right into your Rivian’s navigation, so you can actually see which stations are online and how many plugs are open before you arrive. No more guessing games or toggling between apps.

And the best part: both IONNA and Electrify America are gaining Plug & Charge support for Rivian. Once you pull up, just plug in, no apps, no cards, no PINs. The session automatically authenticates to your Rivian account and starts charging.
