The functionality has improved since we got the truck, but it’s still hit or miss.
Carrying keys around with you all the time is something we've come to accept as just part of life, but new technology is giving us options. Several automakers are now offering the ability to use your cell phone—the other thing you carry around with you all the time—as your car key. Ourlong-term tester has this feature and as much as we like it in concept, it still needs improvement.
The issue primarily seems to be the direction I approach the truck from. Walking up to the front of our R1T, it works every time. Walking up to the rear is less consistent but generally works. Walking to it from the side rarely works. It's more than a little frustrating to walk up to the truck in a parking lot and be standing next to the driver door for several seconds waiting for it to realize I'm there and extend the door handles.
Rivian also supplies a plastic card similar to a hotel room key with an embedded RFID chip. Holding it to the door handle to lock and unlock the truck works reliably once you figure out where the sensor is . Once inside, holding it against a certain spot on the door above the window switches "starts" the truck. This sensor is also a little hard to find, but once you know where it is, it works reliably.Everything about the card also works with the wristband.
