The Largest Single Point Pre-Owned Rivian Dealer in the United States
Hello everyone, Steven here. Some of you may have seen my posts across the forums or heard about our dedication to Pre-Owned Rivians and the Rivian brand.

I’m excited to share that Lindsay Volkswagen is now an official sponsor here on the Rivian Forums! For those who may not know us, we have one of the largest selections of Pre-Owned Rivians in the country.

As of this post we have 60+ Rivians in stock!


A question we get all the time is: why does a Volkswagen dealership in Virginia stock so many Rivians?

The answer is simple. I kept seeing owners share poor buying experiences from all over the country. Rivians being sold by dealerships with little product knowledge, unnecessary fees added on, and overall processes that didn’t reflect the quality of the brand. As a die hard Rivian enthusiast, that didn’t sit right with me, and I wanted to change that.

We’ve been known as one of the area’s leading Pre-Owned EV dealers for years, and I personally was an early EV adopter and currently own 2 R1S's. I’m genuinely passionate about Rivian, and that drove the decision to build one of the largest and most curated Rivian inventories in the country.

While any dealership can buy these vehicles at auction, we approach it differently. I personally handpick every Rivian in our inventory from across the country to ensure we have the best condition, best specs , and widest variety in the market. Currently, we have around 60 Rivians in stock, ranging from 2022 Launch Editions all the way up to a 2026 Quad Max with just a few thousand miles.

To do this right, we formed amazing relationships with our local Rivian Service Centers and built a dedicated Lindsay VW Rivian Certification Program. Our team goes through structured training, hands-on sessions, and multiple certification tests. Only Certified Lindsay VW Rivian Specialists are approved to represent and sell Rivians, so customers are working with people who truly understand the product.

We’re very active in the Rivian community and truly appreciate being part of such a passionate group of owners and enthusiasts.

Below is a link to our live inventory. If something catches your eye, the best way to get more info on a Rivian you see is to click the link below and use the “Contact Us” option on the website listing to connect with one of our Lindsay VW Certified Rivian Product Specialists. I'll also do my best to answer any questions as time allows.

We’ve had the opportunity to put hundreds of Rivians on the road over the past few years, and we’re looking forward to helping many more owners find the right one and keep the world adventurous forever!

Hi Steven. I think it’s awesome that a dealership take such an active interest in Rivian products. Question - does Lindsay have any trained technicians to perform service work on Rivians?
Great question! We do have EV Certified Technicians here on site and transport any Rivians needing extra care to one of our Rivian Service Centers whom we have amazing relationships with!

I enjoy seeing your posts on here and wish you much success. Might also mention for folks just seeing this or considering buying, is that you're only about 8 miles away from the new Sterling service center. Am sure being so close would give potential new owners some peace of mind. Best of luck in your efforts and thank you for being a forum sponsor!

Purchased a '22 R1T from Steven and CJ at Lindsay last October. This was my second Rivian (purchased a Gen 2 R1S direct in Sept. '24). I was leery going through a traditional dealer for this, but 2 minutes at Lindsay and I felt like there were an extension of a Rivian Service Center. They were awesome, knowledgeable, enthusiasts and knew the brand cold. They always make sure every Rivian hits the service center for whatever it needs ahead of a sale. The R1T I bought from them was mint, and rolled up directly from the SC with 12 volt warranty replacement and multi-point done. I had three R1Ts to see in the area but I stopped into Lindsay first, and never bothered to see the others because these guys are pros. Highly recommend CJ, Steven and the whole Lindsay team.

It was definitely a pleasure helping you find the perfect R1T and appreciate all the kind words! We hope to have to opportunity to help you again when you're ready to trade in your R1T (Or add an R2 to the fleet!)

Do you handle DMV paperwork for far-away states? California specifically. I could imagine a one-way flight to DC and a nice road trip back home.

We do! We can process tag and title work for all 50 states! You of course would only pay taxes and registration costs for the state in which you are registering your Rivian. We're also only about 5 minutes down the road from Washington Dulles Airport (IAD) !

Thank you! You make a great point! We work very closely with both the new Rivian Service Center in Sterling along with the Richmond, VA Service Center! If we ever have a Rivian needing a Service Center visit, we transport them via truck (don't drive them) to and from the Service Center!

2kwik4u - I actually flew in from Orlando, after looking at another R1T that was…not as advertised. Shipped the R1T (Dark Helmet) in from Lindsay to Austin after the purchase. Took about 3 days. I was on a clock, otherwise I would have made the drive.
