The Kia EV6 is a fairly conventional electric power steering system, pretty sure. Steering wheel is physically connected to the steering rack, so not steer-by-wire.

But seeing the data is half the fun. Love being able to reference power numbers for climbs and rides both while riding and occasionally after-the-fact. Even if I’m not using it for any serious training plan.

I think Rivian, being an American manufacturer, is probably basing their offerings on the American market first. And there, there seems to be very little demand for sedans, outside of wherever they are the cheapest option available.

I wish it were otherwise, but that seems to be the way the market is going.

As far as I understand, their current plans look something like:

R1 - truck/SUV R2 - compact SUV R3 - hatchback

So no sedans currently planned for the next few years at least. Though the R3 does look quite nice.

I think Rivian has a lot of potential to take over as the next big dedicated EV manufacturer, after people are turned off from Tesla. Hopefully this model launch goes well for them.

Or at least some lights. I think I recall someone saying they would be deployed during orbital night, so hopefully they’ll be visible somehow.

Holding at T-0:00:40

Impression seems to be that they've cleared the issue and are proceeding towards launch.

Exciting!

Update: hold in the count apparently.

Excited to see mock Starlink deployment, hopefully.

Some of these games get quite long, so still haven’t gotten back through the 1-3 remasters yet, but happy that these are out now too. For whenever I can get to them.

I hope so!
