Wishful thinkingā¦ā¦Rivian is still severely parts limited and will be lucky to reach their stated goal of 25k (includes EDVs) by the end of this year. Next year is not necessarily looking a whole lot better.I wish! I expect they double every quarter, which means they may produce ~16k this quarter, which would put them in low 30k produced at end of Q3.
Oh really? Do you work there or know someone with insider knowledge?Wishful thinkingā¦ā¦Rivian is still severely parts limited and will be lucky to reach their stated goal of 25k (includes EDVs) by the end of this year. Next year is not necessarily looking a whole lot better.
I do not work or know anyone from Rivian. I base my comments on public announcements by Rivian. Their last announcement was a confirmation of their previous guidance for a total of 25k vehicles for 2022, which includes the Amazon vans. They have repeatedly said production is limited by parts availability, which has not changed.Oh really? Do you work there or know someone with insider knowledge?
They continue to be limited by parts availability, but the availability of parts may have changed in a positive way. Which doesn't mean it can't later change in a negative way. I am cautiously optimistic that parts availability is improving somewhat.They have repeatedly said production is limited by parts availability, which has not changed.

- My guide on July 8th: "Your truck is prepping to leave the Plant in Normal. The estimated delivery would be within the next 2-4 weeks."
- My guide on July 19th: "We ship trucks by rail. They take up to 2 weeks from Normal, IL. It looks like your truck is due to arrive locally next week. Once it arrives it will need to be processed and inspected for outstanding issues (e.g. update software, replace trim, touch up paint, etc.)"

I just checked mine and it's changed to the same pop up. My Guide said to expect delivery mid August though.According to my guide mine was on train transport as of Monday, in route to Arizona. When clicking step 8 "Scheduled Delivery" the site used to pop-up my guide's contact info. Now the following is displayed. I assume it's at the Phoenix Service Center now. Hopefully getting that invite to schedule delivery soon!
Iām 14 days out from matching with a truck and 11 days since I was told it was in transit.So it seems a lot of people have 9XXX VINs. Mine is in the 8XXX region and I was told this week it was getting ready to leave the factory. I didn't want to bug my guide too much about tracking it but sounds like with the rail setup I should expect it within 10 days or so in my driveway? Just trying to plan for future PPF and stuff.
My account changed in the same way on step 8. SoCal delivery.According to my guide mine was on train transport as of Monday, in route to Arizona.
