  • Rivian Unveils In-House AI Chip (RAP1) to Power R2, Cuts Nvidia Ties
    December 16, 2025, 9:12 AM EST. Rivian Automotive unveiled a custom artificial intelligence chip, the RAP1, and a new in-house autonomy stack designed to reduce reliance on third-party processors such as Nvidia. The chip powers the Autonomy Compute Module 3 (ACM3) and will ship with production vehicles starting with the R2 in late 2026. The initiative signals a shift toward vertical integration of hardware and software, using a vision-centric AI stack built around a Large Driving Model and a multimodal sensor suite (cameras, lidar, radar). Rivian also introduced the Autonomy+ subscription, priced at $2,500 upfront or $49.99/month, offering enhanced driver-assistance features. The plan emphasizes end-to-end development of compute, sensors, models, and software.
