Rivian Boosts EV Trip-Planning Capabilities with New Acquisitions

Rivian has acquired A Better Routeplanner (ABRP), a popular EV route planner, and has integrated its capabilities into its latest software update. The update includes significant enhancements to trip planning, giving drivers more control over route planning and preferred arrival range directly from the Rivian mobile app or center display. The app shows drivers how far they can drive with their current range, what the route will look like, charging options, how long each stop will take, and the approximate range they will be left with when they arrive. Rivian is also working on further customization options for charging and multiple stops for trips.
