  • So Rivian announced a collaboration with Tesla today - In this video I'm going to tell you why that is a very big deal and possibly the biggest news for Rivian since the first Rivian rolled off the production line.

      @@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.

    This is great news. I have a road trip to Iowa in July, and I'm probably going to take my Model Y instead of my R1T because I'm worried about charging hassles. I wish I could get a NACS adapter now!

    • @RivianDad
      @RivianDad  11 месяцев назад

      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.

  • @cruiser97eric1
    @cruiser97eric1 11 месяцев назад +1

    We will have to see how many people decide to delay their purchase until the NACS models are available. The adapter is great for those who already own a CCS truck, but to me it doesn't make sense to buy a new truck with the charger port everybody is running away from.

    • @RivianDad
      @RivianDad  11 месяцев назад +1

      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

    Stoked to hear this. How are we going to charge without taking up two Tesla charging spaces?

    • @RivianDad
      @RivianDad  11 месяцев назад

      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 Dad or anybody else - Do we know yet if and when Rivian will be providing the NACS/CCS adapter to current Rivian owners (w/ CCS ports)? Heard some rumors it would be free but I some how doubt it, so do we have any idea the cost of one?
    I already have a Tesla to CCS adapter for AC charging and it wasn't cheap.

      @@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. 🤞

      @@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.

    это всё интересно очень, но ещё интереснее какой смысл для tesla терять такое конкурентное преимущество перед другими ev, ведь такая развитая сеть зарядных станций tesla вынуждала многих покупателей которые ищут себе ev выбирать автомобили tesla, даже не смотря на то, что по другим аспектам и характеристикам они проигрывают ev других брендов. возможно tesla рассчитывает на прибыль с этих зарядных станций, но мне кажется что эта прибыль будет не сопоставима с убытком связанным с потерей спроса. для меня это загадка что они задумали...

      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.

    • @RivianDad
      @RivianDad  11 месяцев назад

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