Livian plans to launch a free -term driving this year,

Although the current R1T and R1S models have driver-auxiliary technology, they lack a more advanced autonomous system

By the end of this year, Rivian plans to launch a free -term autonomous driving system in its vehicle and carry out a higher -level eye system in 2026. Automotive manufacturers that provide a system designed to reduce the burden of drivers-of course, they will not hit too many obstacles in the process.

RIVIAN CEO RJ SCARINNEE emphasized at the San Francisco’s news round table meeting that level 2 and levels will provide customers with important value. The brand’s current RIVIAN autonomy plan provides semi -autonomous functions, including radar cruise control and automatic swimming roads, but it still does not have Ford’s free blue bubbles and Tesla’s autonomous driving instruments and complete autonomous driving systems.

According to Insideevs, “we believe that it has great value to customers and has a strong first level, but it is important that in the third level in very specific areas.” In the car, but you have to go to the highway, you have all time … you don’t have to look at the road. “Vehicles (will) be able to do this.”

The system can be added to the upcoming R2 and R3 series

Screenee added that Rivian “highly focused” in 2025 launched the launch -free driving array, and then paid attention to the eyes, the level 3 system in 2026. Mercedes-Benz is currently the only car manufacturer that provides a level 3-level system in some states in the United States and is called a driver pilot. Although this is a very effective system, the driver must be controlled at any time.

Rivian’s current R1T and R1S models use 11 cameras, 5 radar sensors and 12 ultrasonic sensors to enable various driver assistance functions. Maybe only the recently updated 2025 R1T and R1S models can get new level 2 and level 3 systems, not the company’s previous electric vehicles. Other future models, such as smaller R2 and R3, can also use these techniques to start the autonomous driving system.
