Rivian Ready to Profit: R2 Model Launches 2025

CFO Unveils Brand’s Estimates

Rauh McDonough suggested that American EV startup Rivian is likely to be making money by the second half of 2024. The CFO made this comment during last week’s Bank of America Securities Summit, reported on Twitter by Rivian Updates.

Rivian’s Chief Financial Officer didn’t conclude there, in any case, and stated that the American electric vehicle producer intends to fabricate 85,000 R1 units one year from now, which is more than triple the amount of EVs it created in 2022 altogether (R1S, R1T, and Electric Delivery Van total). This extraordinary increase in production would be utilized to take care of the enormous demand subsequent to the value rise in March, which extends “well into 2024”.

Concerning orders placed ahead of the March value increase, Rivian is anticipating that they’ll construct and furnish all required cars by mid 2023.

Nevertheless, essential statements have been made related to the forthcoming R2 2.0 platform, forecasted to uphold sundry fewer costly designs.

Claire Rauh McDonough indicated that Rivian looks forward to beginning the production of its platform by 2025-2026, with a goal of providing 200,000 R2 vehicles during 2026 and 400,000 afterwards.

Adopting a plan akin to Tesla’s initial approach, it is projected that the R2 models will be much more cost-effective compared to the current R1 models. It is said that the cost point would be in close proximity to the Tesla Model Y; estimating at around $40,000 for the baseline trim. Given such MSRP (which has yet to be officially verified), Rivian hopes the R2 will be an everyday consumer vehicle and become a global presence; allowing the American EV company to branch out beyond the US. Especially since they recently began recruiting service personnel in Germany, Europe seems to be the foremost target market.

That being said, the Electric Delivery Vans (EDVs) are a major focus for Amazon as of now, aside from ramping up generation of R1 units. The work vehicles have been given priority over the dual-motor R1 models to use the Enduro electric motors produced by the brand.

Production of the EDV was temporarily halted in Q1 of 2023 as Rivian used their modern lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery and updated in-house Enduro engine. As a reminder, 3000 Rivian manufactured electric Amazon vans are making deliveries across numerous parts of America.

In regards to extending its Adventure Network of DC fast chargers, Rivian aspires to make use of the Federal Charging Fund in order to expedite the augmentation of stations substantially. By procuring the government funds, the American EV constructor necessitates opening up access to the network for all EV designs, similarly to what Tesla implemented with the Magic Dock-equipped Superchargers. Bearing this in mind the Rivian Adventure Network presently features approximately 20 sites throughout America (more being added shortly), making it a savvy selection.

Once again, we’re incredibly curious to get your opinion on this topic. Why don’t you take a moment and tell us in the comments segment of this article regarding Rivian’s schemes?
