Right driving mode on my RIvian

[Lito84]

Hello everyone, I used to drive in all-purpose mode on my R1T all the time but recently switched to eco. I realized that it is more efficient than the all-purpose mode while not compromising its power. That's only for me. What's the best drive mode for you?

My dealer advised me to use "all-purpose mode" most of the time to save tire wear and tear, except when driving on the freeway. But, just in case, check the car manual as well.

Eco mode is good if you want to get the best out of your vehicle or get the most range for a full charge, using "all-purpose mode" just like he said can save wear and tear for your tires. Eco is the mode I usually use because I have plans to invest on premium tires, I'm just making the most out of these stock tires.

I don't use econo mode. This might take some getting used to when switching back to all-purpose mode, where you might need to press the pedal a bit more than you're accustomed to, which in turn might cause an accident.

I usually have to drive a lot, this is why, ECONO mode is not for me. It tends to reduce the vehicle's responsiveness in favor of fuel efficiency.

I respect the efficiency of Eco mode, but I gotta say, Sport mode is where it’s at when I really want to enjoy the drive. The instant throttle response makes the R1T feel like a sports car in a truck body!

That said, Eco and Conserve are definitely the best for maximizing range. I’ve found that when I use Conserve mode, I gain a solid 10-15% more range compared to All-Purpose. But when I just want to have fun? Sport mode all day.
