Rivian: The R2 boosts sales and becomes central to profitability
Rivian reported a third quarter with revenue up 38% and deliveries up 46%, driven by the R2, while remaining unprofitable due to launch costs. The R2, priced at $59,485, sold more than the R1S and R1T combined, and Rivian raised its 2026 delivery forecasts. Analysts lowered their price targets, while UBS upgraded its recommendation, viewing the 19% drop in the stock as an opportunity, with CEO RJ Scaringe asserting that the manufacturer is on schedule. The provided sub-events concern only the United States; the story is also covered in South Korea, without detailed national differences in the available elements.
