Rivians can also correctly show all Tesla Superchargers that will charge the vehicle from the navigation screen. Click on the "Network" button and select "Tesla" and then click on the "Hide" button and make sure that "Adapter needed" is NOT selected. Now you'll see all of the Superchargers that require an adapter for Rivian use. Hope this helps!
Nice to see it actually charging at a high-rate. The 1 time I charged my R1S at a Tesla Supercharger site rated at 250 kW ... it was charging at 60 kW which is ridiculously slow. I wonder if Tesla rate-limits non Teslas to discourage use ... if they are, then it is working because I have zero interest in using their network again.
Thank you Dre for the awesome video. I am heading to Gaithersburg next weekend to demo test drive a 2025 R1S. I am still looking at the Lyriq but this would be a good time to test drive a Gen 2 R1S....
It uses the same billing information that I set up in the vehicle to work with Rivian’s network so no need to set up a Tesla account! You just plug in and it works.
@@SamiKhan-jl6jk Has Lucid officially been announced as being supported on their Superchargers yet? I know Ford and Rivian were the first 2 to be given access at first. Pretty sure there is some software integration that happens on Tesla’s side so that the charger knows what car it’s connected to.🤷🏾

Good point. I neglected to mention that.

That’s where we did our test drive. You gonna love that joint!
Good review
How does billing work? You need the Tesla app set up?

@@ChargedUpEV-gx2ik interesting! I drive a Lucid Air so I bet for me it will be different. Curious about this. Very awesome video.
