A recent patent shows that Rivian may be developing a similar mode, called \u201cfront dig mode,\u201d that turns more tightly and may be easer for EV drivers to use. It\u2019s probably just as likely to destroy a bunch of precious trails though.. <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2022\/08\/11\/rivian-front-dig-mode\/\" target='bwindow' rel=\"noopener\">More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; <a class=\"continue-reading-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/rivian-files-patent-for-front-dig-mode-possibly-a-more-user-friendly-version-of-tank-turn\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-191419","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-electrek"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/20"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=191419"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191419\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":255257,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/191419\/revisions\/255257"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=191419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=191419"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.evearly.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=191419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
