Rivian Confirms R2 Charge Port Relocated

RivianTrackr contacted Rivian this morning to confirm rumors of the Rivian R2 NACS charging port being relocated after reports on social media and Electrek were made. I can now confirm that the rumors are all correct and that Rivian has officially decided to move the upcoming Rivian R2 charging port to the driver’s rear side which will make it fully compatible with the Tesla Supercharging Network around the world.

What are your thoughts on moving the charging port, does it impact your decision?
