Rivian Software Update 2024.35.0

Gear Guard Live Cam

R1 Gen 1 · R1S Gen 2

Gear Guard Live Cam allows you to view live video streams from the Gear Guard cameras on your Rivian mobile app (version 2.14.0 or later). You can initiate Live Cam while the vehicle is parked. You can check on the vehicle spontaneously, or in response to a notification from the Gear Guard alarm system. Use the Rivian mobile app to:

• View live camera feeds when the vehicle is in Park.
• Receive notifications and review camera feeds when the alarm is triggered.
• Switch between camera feeds for any of the Gear Guard cameras.

NOTE

Gear Guard Live Cam requires you to have a current Connect+ subscription and to opt into precise location sharing with the Rivian mobile app. Running a virtual private network (VPN) client on your mobile device may prevent your ability to view live camera feeds.

Tri-Zone Climate

R1 Gen 1 · R1S Gen 2 · Varies by vehicle

Your vehicle now provides three distinct climate zones: driver seat, front passenger seat, and rear passenger seats. Each is customizable, making every trip more comfortable. You can now:

• R1 Gen 1 · R1S Gen 2: Manage the temperature settings for all three zones using the Climate Controls panel on the center display.
• R1T Gen 1: View and adjust the temperature setting for the rear zone through the rear display.
• R1T Gen 1: Heat the rear seats from the Vent Controls panel by selecting the graphic of the seat you want to heat.
• R1S Gen 1 · R1S Gen 2: View and adjust the temperature setting for the second-and third-row seats through the rear display.
• R1S Gen 1 · R1S Gen 2: Heat the second-row seats from the Vent Controls panel by selecting the graphic of the seat you want to heat.

R1S Gen 2: Enhanced Seat Belt Reminder for the Second and Third Rows To comply with the latest Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) standards, we’ve made several improvements to the seat belt reminder notification system.

• R1S Gen 2: Until seat belts are fastened, auditory and visual alerts persist to remind passengers in all seats to fasten their seat belts.
• R1S Gen 2: On the Driver display, a status indicator shows the status for all seats (occupied/unoccupied) and seat belts (fastened/not fastened) so you can quickly and easily identify which is triggering the alert.

New Animations for Drive Mode Settings

R1 Gen 1 · R1S Gen 2

We've added new animations to help you better understand the changes you make to the Ride Height, Brake Regen, Stability, and Ride Feel settings. When you update a setting, an animation shows you helpful visual information about the setting you are changing and how it affects your vehicle.

• The Ride Height animation shows the ground and overhead clearance of the vehicle at different ride heights.
• The Ride Feel settings animation shows how the vehicle responds to the terrain it is traveling over.
• Stability settings visualization displays information about how much the vehicle is allowed to slip from the intended path.

Enhanced Dynamic Lighting

R1S Gen 2

Vehicle headlights now automatically adjust depending on real-time road and vehicle conditions. We have made several improvements to your vehicle’s dynamic lighting:

• The headlight beams adjust dynamically and automatically so the road is optimally lit, regardless of ride height or road conditions.
• Driver visibility is improved, reducing glare for oncoming traffic and improving overall road safety.
• The headlights respond to changes in your vehicle's pitch and weight distribution so they can keep the beams level for optimal aim.
