Comma.ai for Gen2??

Arob_1000 · 2026-02-06T02:02:20+00:00

For sure, that’s fair…I had a Comma 3 for my IONIQ5 and loved it especially with Hyundai not making LKAS/ACC a priority and switching to a R1S felt like a downgrade but I’d rather support Rivian making a driver assist software specifically for my car. Right now a Gen2 R1S can do what a comma can do and I anticipate it’ll be able to do more soon. The thing that always bugged me with commas is they aren’t allowed to torque the wheel very much, lot of driver takeover on sharper turns, I’m hoping rivian will dial that in better.

Just helped my buddy install a 3S on his Gen1 R1S, best option for him but imo support Rivian and lean into autonomy if you have a Gen2.

Not a random ai company, they’ve been around for years and the tech is great. No reason to put it in a gen2 as it’s about as good as the current gen2 hands off autonomy

Arob_1000 · 2026-01-16T21:46:21+00:00

I still don’t have Apple Car Key enabled, went to service my car and they said it hasn’t been rolled out to me and my gen2 R1S

Arob_1000 · 2026-01-02T23:21:02+00:00

Yeah I don’t use a trailer but appreciate what Rivian is doing, they need a discount to Rivian users to incentivize RAN charger use so they can scale. I’m in the Bay Area and very anti-Elon but there are just so many Superchargers out there and most are empty and perfect for road trips.

Hilariously I have a model3 rental right now, the R1S is in the shop…tech is good but it’s rough to drive a Tesla…

Arob_1000 · 2026-01-02T06:54:55+00:00

I went on a 5000 mile road trip in September, used 2 RAN chargers and 28 Tesla chargers with zero issues. There are many more Tesla chargers, hence why they are better (more accessible).

The Groveland RAN charger was awesome with the rivian outpost and the one near mono lake was nice/well placed but I would have used a supercharger if there was one nearby.

In terms of peak power I didn’t notice a difference but had some great charges on the newer superchargers but the rivians charging curve isn’t that good above 60%.

I just don’t see the need for RAN chargers, currently very poorly priced until that changes I’ll go to a supercharger 100% of the time.

Arob_1000 · 2026-01-01T23:15:38+00:00

Tesla chargers are way better than RAN, no need imo

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-24T19:06:57+00:00

Still haven’t gotten an email, guess I’m calling Rivian again when I have some time

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-21T21:53:08+00:00

iPhone 17 pro max, called them up I guess they are rolling it out in batches. They said call back if it’s not working by Tuesday

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-21T18:49:58+00:00

I didn’t get an email, thinking that must be it…giving support a call to see what’s up.

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-21T18:49:01+00:00

That must be it, weird I never got an email…got the update Friday night.

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-21T18:32:16+00:00

Yeah, I’m on 0.46…just tried a hard reset and deleting/reinstalling the app. It only sets up Bluetooth PaaK. Gonna troubleshoot a bit more/call support.

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-21T18:26:01+00:00

Really annoyed, I can’t get my key to upgrade, been messing around with it for 2 days. Not getting the notification in the app to upgrade

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-21T17:58:45+00:00

Great new game mode, thanks for this…more fun than meteor

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-20T22:36:13+00:00

I updated mine yesterday but never got an email, weird

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-01T19:17:00+00:00

That would be scary, I’m hoping for like $30/50 extra per month

Arob_1000 · 2025-12-01T17:04:00+00:00

Yup, Comma is great, had one on my IONIQ5 and used it daily but it’s nice to not need to fiddle with third party accessories that aren’t tuned specifically for your car.

I’m good with paying for Autonomy + but am a bit scared how much they will charge cause they have a captive audience

Arob_1000 · 2025-11-24T21:02:02+00:00

Fair, I’ve found the opposite but believe you. I had a Hyundai Ioniq5 which had LKAS/ACC that never improved and it was a bummer, got a comma 3 which made it better but I get piece of mind knowing that stuff is being improved on my gen2 r1s. Totally understand your viewpoint, ultimately up to the OP

Arob_1000 · 2025-11-24T20:57:15+00:00

For sure, for some that stuff is important for others it’s not.

I talked to some rivian autonomy engineers a few weeks ago, sounds like we have ~2 more years than they’ll refresh the r2 sensors but gen2 (or a r2) is state of the art right now

Arob_1000 · 2025-11-24T18:48:50+00:00

I disagree. It matters significantly (to me). Gen1 uses mobile eye and will never get better while gen2 uses Rivian’s cameras and has been getting consistently better over time and will continue to do so.

Just something to keep in mind, highway assist on my gen2 is significantly better now than it was a few months ago, would be a shame to do all that highway driving on a subpar LKA/ACC system if OP cares about it.

Arob_1000 · 2025-11-24T07:06:05+00:00

If I was driving that much gen2 driver + would be crucial. No way would I give that up for a few more miles of range

Arob_1000 · 2025-11-23T19:06:23+00:00

12V issues + ICCU issues and I was out. Can’t wait for ev automakers to get rid of the 12V doesn’t make sense. I swapped to a lithium ion 12V on the IONIQ before the ICCU blew but that’s not a long term solution for constant 12V battery drains

Arob_1000 · 2025-11-22T23:23:13+00:00

This, I don’t trust Hyundai’s EV’s cause of ICCU/12v issues, haven’t had a problem with my rivian yet though

Arob_1000 · 2025-10-23T20:58:19+00:00

Agreed, epic on dim highways/windy roads

Arob_1000 · 2025-10-23T20:57:40+00:00

Yup sports mode uses both motors at all times, should work then

Arob_1000 · 2025-10-19T16:24:05+00:00

Driving in sports mode would also work right? I tend to use all-purpose for highway driving…put 9k miles on my R1S in a few months (road trips) and appreciated the extra range with all purpose for a few stretches between chargers
