New Video: Rivian Openpilot Just Got a Major Upgrade – August 2025 Update

If you’ve been following the progress of Openpilot support on Rivian vehicles, you know how quickly things have evolved. In our latest video, we dive deep into where things stand now—with a focus on Lukas Loetkolben’s Longitudinal Upgrade Kit, the latest Sunnypilot fork, and how the Comma 3X performs on Gen 1 R1T and R1S models.


What’s in the Video

In this hands-on update, we cover:

  • The current state of Openpilot on Rivian with and without the harness upgrade
  • How the Longitudinal Upgrade Kit unlocks full acceleration and braking control
  • Installing and running sunnypilot/staging-c3-new
  • Fine-tuning recommended settings for the smoothest experience
  • Limitations that still exist—like the 90-degree steering torque cutoff and tire-dependent handling
  • A look ahead at angle-based steering and radar+vision fusion improvements
