Rivian is planning to add a solar roof panel.
Back in August 2019 it was tweeted from the official Rivian account that "multiple roof styles including electrochromic glass (which turns from opaque to transparent on demand), a fixed glass panel, a two-piece removable composite roof and a standard fixed roof" will be available.
Although the confirmation of it happen is great, how Rivian includes solar panels throughout its vehicles is unclear. I can see how an entire solar roof assembly of the same dimensions as the electrochromic glass will be offered. Eventually they might need to do something else as well.
A roof that opens up like the Fisker Ocean would be nice and/or a bed panel option.
