Rivian Adventure Network (RAN) Now Open to Non-Rivian EVs

[ThunderSnoww]

Was browsing my state Plugshare map and noticed a review by a Silverado EV at a RAN station. Upon checking Rivian's website, it appears that they've completed the necessary upgrades to many stations to allow non-Rivian EV charging. I hadn't noticed a recent press release (in 2025) about the roll-out, but the map is clear. Very excited to have more DCFC changing options in central-northern Lower Michigan!

Has anyone used them? Is it like most other providers so you need an account with Rivian with a credit card on file or you can just use the credit card at the charger with no previous setup?

/I hope more of them become available to us as we go along.

I’ve looked at a few but they are just so expensive! I’d probably only use them if in a real jam. Stick to SC they are generally quite a bit cheaper and reliable.

In Oregon, the only Rivian chargers that are open to other marques is in Astoria. At least that is what the Rivian website says. Other "nearby" open chargers are in central CA and Montana. So clearly have not pushed the software out widespread. Will have to continue using EA and Tesla when on the road for now.

No previous setup needed.

Used a Rivian charger near Lansing, Michigan about 6 months ago when they first started opening up to other vehicles. No membership or app needed. I did Apple Pay at the reader on the pedestal. Could have easily swiped/tapped a credit card.

It was a good charging experience. Glad more are opening up.

Was .53 kWh for me. .40 kWh for Rivian's.

That is great news. Thanks for sharing.

Reminder that many of these are likely NEVI stations that have to serve all vehicles as part of being subsidized. See for example this Michigan location (post 6 and later): https://www.f150lightningforum.com/...cess-for-ford-still-expected-this-year.22556/

Here's the RAN sites in a list format. Sort by the lock icon.
