There’s general agreement that the potential for big things is there when it comes to fledgling EV maker Rivian. It has managed two develop and start producing two vehicles, and both the R1T pickup and the R1S SUV had been generally well-received.
However, since production started last September, the sailing hasn’t been exactly smooth. The glitches have gone beyond just the expected hiccups new manufacturers can encounter, and a lot of them have to do with the ongoing supply-chain problems afflicting the industry.
At the beginning of 2022, Rivian projected it would assemble 50,000 vehicles by the end of the year. In March, it chopped that goal in half, to 25,000 units.
Yesterday, the company had some good news to share with its investors, namely that production increased significantly in Q2 compared with Q1. The pace is still slow, but it is going in the right direction.
