Rivian Autonomy+ targets hands-free driving with extra safety guardrails

CNBC Markets says Rivian is positioning Autonomy+ as a way to match Tesla’s hands-free approach, while adding guardrails it says Tesla lacks.

Rivian is working to close the gap with Tesla’s hands-free driving capabilities with its Autonomy+ system, according to CNBC Markets.

The outlet describes Rivian’s approach as combining hands-free functionality with additional safety guardrails.

CNBC Markets says the comparison highlights that Rivian’s system includes safety measures it does not attribute to Tesla’s current setup.
