en.Wedoany.com Reported - Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe recently stated that the company plans to launch a fully supervised point-to-point driving feature by the end of this year, which will be similar to Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system and will be rolled out to all Gen 2 vehicles and R2 models.

Although Tesla has invested a decade in autonomous driving technology development, Scaringe believes Rivian can achieve similar capabilities. On one hand, Tesla has taken some detours during its R&D process, wasting time; on the other hand, other companies have been advancing related technologies without much publicity. Additionally, advancements in hardware technology have benefited all developers. Rivian's approach is more similar to Waymo's, using more sensors, which differs from Tesla's path.

Scaringe previously stated that the company will develop fully unsupervised autonomous driving technology next year and expects to achieve it by 2030. In March, Rivian signed a $1.25 billion agreement with Uber, planning to sell 50,000 fully autonomous R2 vehicles to Uber for its robotaxi business. The agreement is contingent on Rivian developing the technology to support driverless taxis.
