Disclaimers:

Tesla Supercharger requires an NACS DC adapter. Use the NACS DC adapter with DC fast chargers only. Don't attempt to use the adapter with an AC charger.
Every kilowatt-hour Rivian Adventure Network (RAN) chargers deliver is matched with renewable resources like solar and wind annually. The amount of renewable energy developed or purchased matches the amount of energy flowing through RAN chargers into vehicles. Learn more.
Use only charging adapters provided by Rivian or approved by the vehicle manufacturer. Charging adapters may cause damage or pose safety risks.
Charging speeds vary based on battery capacity, state of charge, and temperature, charger capacity, weather, site-specific conditions, and more. Stated speeds reflect optimal conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are charge station levels?

Charging levels describe the rate at which you can charge your battery. These terms are industry standards and used as labels so you can quickly identify how powerful a specific charge station is.

Level 3: DC fast charging — the quickest charge available. On the Rivian Adventure Network, you will initially be able to charge an R1T and R1S up to 150 miles in 20 minutes. That rate can increase with over-the-air software updates. In addition to the Rivian Adventure Network, our vehicles can also use public DC fast chargers with CCS connectors and NACS connectors (adapter required).

Level 2: Public and home charging — capable of charging roughly 16-25 miles of range per hour depending on the electrical current available. Level 2 charging is accessible through the Rivian Wall Charger, Rivian Waypoints Chargers, public charging sites and by using a Rivian Portable Charger with 240V outlets.

Level 1: A slower charge — handy if you need to top off on a regular household outlet. Using the Rivian Portable Charger with a standard 120-volt outlet, you will get a few miles of charge per hour.

What charging equipment comes with a Rivian vehicle?

All 2026+ Rivian vehicles come with a J1772 AC charging adapter for use at level 2 charging stations. Quad configurations also include a CCS1 DC charging adapter to use at level 3 fast charging stations with a CCS1 connector type.

You can add a Portable Charger, Wall Charger and charging adapters to your vehicle order or purchase separately from Gear Shop anytime.

Where are Rivian Adventure Network chargers located?

The Rivian Adventure Network is a comprehensive network of fast-charging sites for Rivian owners. You can find charger availability and all charging locations — including Rivian Adventure Network, Waypoints and other public chargers — in your Rivian app and directly from your in-vehicle navigation. Simply choose your destination and the navigation will automatically route you through any needed charging stops.

We're also continuously updating the map of existing and coming soon Rivian charging sites here.

How does Rivian power its charging networks with 100% renewable energy?

Every kilowatt-hour our chargers deliver is matched with renewable resources like solar and wind, on an annual basis. That means the amount of renewable energy we develop or purchase, matches or exceeds the amount of energy flowing through our Rivian Waypoints and Rivian Adventure Network chargers and into EVs.*

We use a variety of mechanisms to develop or purchase renewable energy, including power purchase agreements (contracts to buy a certain amount of renewable energy at a fixed price for a period of time), onsite and community-based solar and wind projects, and partnerships with utilities. Regardless of the mechanism, our aim is to add renewables to the nation’s grid, and in places where they can drive the greatest benefits. In this early stage in our business, we also purchase a limited amount of renewable energy from existing projects.

In determining which mechanism to use for a given location, we first consider the area’s current energy sources – how much of its grid mix is already renewable and how much comes from fossil fuels. Then, to fill in the gap and reach 100%, we work to add renewable resources either in the communities where our chargers operate or in places where the grid relies more heavily on fossil fuels. Clean energy isn’t distributed evenly across the US today, and balancing clean energy access is a critical step on the path to a more sustainable system.

To get into the nitty-gritty, consider the different roles renewables play in three states: In California, they generate nearly 40% of the state’s energy. In Tennessee, it’s 15%, and in Mississippi just over 2%. Not only do these disparities have local environmental, health and economic drawbacks, but they have system-wide carbon consequences. A kilowatt-hour of electricity in Tennessee emitted 32% more CO2 than a kilowatt-hour in Northern California in 2020, according to WattTime, a tech non-profit who tracks avoided emissions impact of new renewable energy projects. By targeting projects that add renewables to grids with greater emissions, we can boost the carbon-cutting benefits of new wind and solar energy. Our first new megawatt of solar energy demonstrates this approach. It takes time to build meaningful projects, and we aim to continue to build on our first deployment in Tennessee.

Ultimately, our vision is to promote renewable technologies at the time and place where they can have the greatest impact for all, not just our own operations. Learn more about the growing portfolio of renewable energy projects supported by Rivian and our customers.

*Rivian will provide verification of the volume of renewable energy purchased but cannot at this time provide third party assurance of the matching claims made here.

How much does it cost to charge a Rivian vehicle?

Charging costs vary based on the cost of electricity in your area. In general, when charging at home, you can expect to fully charge a Rivian vehicle for about half the cost of a tank of gas.

You can also program your Rivian Wall Charger to accept charge during off-peak hours when energy rates are most affordable, further lowering your costs.

For public charging, pricing varies as each charging network sets its own price. Pricing often correlates to the charger’s speed and even still, pricing is typically at or below the cost of gasoline. Refer to the charger’s screen for specific pricing details.

How do I purchase a Rivian Wall Charger?

You can purchase the Rivian Wall Charger when ordering your vehicle. If you finance your vehicle through Rivian, you can also include the cost of the Wall Charger.

Wall Charger is also available in Gear Shop and in select Service Centers and Spaces if you'd like to purchase it separately from your Rivian. Wall Charger comes with either a NACS connector type for model year 2026+ vehicles or a J1772 connector type for model years 2022-2025.
