Rivian just got access to Tesla’s Supercharger network, but without this key feature

Rivian vehicles are now compatible with the Tesla Supercharging network, but Supercharging Members are missing out on a key feature.

We already knew that Rivian would be gaining access to the Tesla Supercharger network in March, but it is still exciting to see them actually launch the compatibility and see it in action. However, if you have a Supercharging Membership with Tesla, your experience is actually worse than someone without one. Yesterday, Rivian and Tesla announced that Rivian vehicles are now officially compatible with the Tesla Supercharging network.

You’ll also be able to “plug and charge” with automatic billing. Simply plug the charger into the vehicle and charging will begin automatically without having to pull up an app. That sounds great, right? Just pull up, connect your adapter, and plug in. But wait. What if you have a Supercharging Membership, Tesla's subscription service that gets non-Tesla owners the same price for charging at a Supercharger as Tesla owners? The subscription costs $12.
