Rivian owners sue over false promises on self-driving features

Rivian is facing a class action lawsuit filed by owners of its first-generation R1 vehicles. The plaintiffs in the complaint allege that the company falsely promised for several years that it would introduce hands-free driving capabilities to these early models. The legal action centers on the lack of these self-driving features despite the company's previous assurances to customers, leading to claims of deceptive promises regarding the technological capabilities of the early vehicle fleet.
