Rivian received $1 billion from Volkswagen, bolstering its financial position while allowing VW access to Rivian's technology. The company delivered 10,661 vehicles in Q2, a 23% decline from the previous year, hampered by production transitions. Demand for Rivian's vehicles such as the R1S SUV and R1T pickup may be negatively impacted by high pricing. Rivian's total annual deliveries in 2024 reached 51,579, with expectations lowered to 40,000 to 46,000 vehicles due to tariffs and production issues. The $45,000 R2 crossover is seen as vital for future growth, set for 2026 production.
