Rivian: R2 drives growth in the third quarter, losses persist
Rivian reported a quarterly revenue increase of 38% year-on-year, beating expectations, with deliveries up 46%, driven by the R2 which has become its best-selling model. The manufacturer remains unprofitable due to launch costs, while raising its delivery forecasts for 2026 and confirming it is on schedule. The R2, priced at $59,485 and equipped with a standard heat pump extending its range to 335 miles, is presented as decisive for profitability, while analysts and the stock market reacted with mixed responses and Amazon continues its orders for electric utility vehicles. The sub-events provided are all located in the United States; the South Korean coverage does not detail any specific national difference within these elements.
