Thanks!!

Totally necessary

Thanks!!

Thanks! Where do you live? What’s the charging situation like where you are?

@@RivianDad Its still in infancy here in Indonesia, govt just recently subsidized electric car and motorcycle ownership. Electric motorcycle are entering probably its fourth or fifth years, but still not much development in tech and infrastructure. While car still entering its second year. Outside of capital city of Jakarta, charger station only available in our state owned electric company regional office ,that means there is only one charger station for each region which isnt much at all. In the capital are better I supposed, many franchised convenience store also provide charger station there.

@@bpcgos well, very interesting, thank you for that information. Looks like we still have a ways to go.

I can see the reasoning with this choice, I will say, though that the charging network is good enough for a road trip in a Rivian. It’s just that there’s more risk. But it is sufficient in my experience with some extra planning and some backup options.

Yes, there is! Finished recording just starting editing. Might be a week. Sorry.

Yeah. To me, there’s a huge parallel with lightning versus USB-C connectors. Probably a lot of people are waiting to upgrade their phones until they include usb-c

the original video is here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eqmAhZheqKvJYnU.html the Rivian updated map is here: rivian.com/experience/charging#map

Yeah. The big problem is the location of the charge port. It’s the wrong corner so Rivian will have to move it to right front.

Rivian stated earlier on that they eventually plan to open the Network up. Not sure what that means though

I’m sorry to say I have no additional information for you. I don’t know.

@@RivianDad - Thanks, no worries. Just thought I would ask since some time (6+ months) has gone by since the announcement. I'm hoping 3rd party providers can and will provide the adapter. Based on what I've seen with Rivian pricing for accessories, it won't be cheap. Here's hoping it's either free from Rivian (which I doubt) or at least at a discounted price only available for current R1 owners. 🤞

@@chuckm260 there are aftermarket versions for sale now for under $100 although I’m not sure if they will handle the full wattage. Just check Amazon for ccs to NACS adapter.

@@RivianDad I think you're confused on what's available today on Amazon. The CCS to NACS adapters being sold today are for a Tesla to charge at a CCS charging station. What I/we as Rivian owners, more generically non-Tesla owners with CCS charging ports, need a NACS to CCS adapter which are not available yet, at least I can't find them. And why would they be as no one could use them yet, not even GM or Ford.

Спасибо за ваш комментарий. Я немного говорю по-русски, так что я сделаю все возможное здесь. Спасибо гугл переводчику. :-) Я уверен, что руководство Tesla уже давно беспокоится об этом. Другим важным фактором здесь является законопроект об инфраструктуре, который предоставляет средства для поощрения развития сети зарядки. к этим средствам привязаны условия, так что это, безусловно, также является движущим фактором.

Я также думаю, что у Теслы есть довольно большой плюс в том, что их разъем для зарядки станет стандартом.

@@RivianDad я думаю вы правы, и я очень рад, что хоть и чуть-чуть, но говорите по-русски)) я чуть-чуть понимаю английский и мне очень нравятся ваши ролики!)

@@sanchouz1571 Я стараюсь изо всех сил. большое спасибо!
