I also love their charger network as a non-rivian owner. Seamless, sleek, fast, no faffing with an app…
But also their app has a route planner for EVs to account for charging stops?! And it lists all chargers, not just their own.
I’m actually pleasantly surprised.
EDIT: well I just found out how they managed to roll their own route planner without me hearing anything about it and only seeing people talking about ABRP still: Rivian just bought ABRP, so their app is just calling ABRP in the background with only their specific car’s info. I opened ABRP today for it to tell me that I have to agree to Rivian’s TOS to continue using the app.
How come Rivian can do it without all this drama? Costs less too.
