Did anyone get an order invite email today? I had hoped after the last two Tuesday’s being the day of invites that it would also happen today.

Keep in mind how the all-mighty Tesla did on the Model 3 rollout. It took them 10 months from delivering the first Model 3 (July 2017) to getting me my VIN 22,xxx in May 2018. Patience, they’ll get you your vehicles.
Yes, but at the time, EV options were very limited. Options aren't as limited anymore... If the email I get by the end of June says I have to wait 3-4 months, then I'm going for my 2nd choice... because I have a 2nd choice.

It seems a bit odd, that as of now there are so few actual delivery DATES, a the majority are >7/15/26? Or later? I would have thought some of these early order recipients would have really been getting R2 buy at latest end of the month of June, assuming they had banked some production..
Maybe the majority of prior production really DID go to employees first, and a few other lucky ppl?

Or, has there been any issue of note that could have delayed final delivery windows? Something with production, parts, suppliers or software?
My service center guy today told me they are only doing employee deliveries right now, at my SC at least. He was happy to hear I had my order in but not surprised I didn't have a delivery estimate yet.

I don’t believe this is anywhere close to accurate.

For those who have gotten the R2s, has anyone had a single issue? That might be a good peek into how it’s going.
I didn’t say there were manufacturing issues. I am saying they weren’t ready to ramp yet. This was all a move to please investors. Rivian hasn’t learned much from the R1 rollout.

The “shipping more than one at a time to a location” theory is what I was thinking as well, because I ordered on the 9th and haven’t heard anything about a VIN or delivery yet. The SC near me just opened a month ago and I’m not necessarily in a huge metro area (although there are tons of Rivians around) so it may be taking longer to accumulate enough orders here. That said my R1 lease expires on the 12th so I’m hoping that factors in too.
Heads up, the Pittsburgh service center isn’t doing R2 deliveries yet. I got my vin on 6/22 and Cleveland is the only pickup option. Called two different sales people and was told Pittsburgh won’t be available until later in the summer.

Oh interesting! They didn’t mention that when I did my test drive there. I have to take my R1S in for service on Thursday so I was going to ask about it then.

When / what color did you order?

VegasWheezy do you mind if I ask what year you made that 6/16 reservation that got you a VIN number? 6/16/24 or 26? Curious Im in Vegas also and own an R1S two years and have sold 2. I stated I would take a launch edition and nothing. Actually…I got a text from the number from the Rivian test drive rep that said to look for an e mail to configure ……then I got a follow up 5 minutes later saying it was an error. This was 1 day after my test drive on 6/11. After that experience Im going to wait for a reasonable lease rate. Im in no rush and they killed the vibe for me with the mistaken offer.
My reservation was made on 3/7/2024, day 1 during the reveal. Had a demo drive on 6/9/26 as soon as they were available. The order invite was sent on 6/16/2026 and I placed the order within minutes of receiving the email. VIN was given today. Don't have an official delivery date yet, but a Rivian guide texted me from the N Las Vegas SC and said the logistics estimate would have the vehicle here in about 3-4 weeks.

I don't think you have a factual basis for that claim. Clearly in many ways they have learned. It looks like they have made rational choices that they see as moving the company forward, and not deliveriing vehicles was not an option for them. But only time will tell if it is enough. I mean, not delivering Pet Mode at launch is hardly a tragedy or justifies holding up production when they don't know how well the new RGB camera works with the software.

So the two to six weeks to delivery after ordering is just arriving today. Not too surprising it's not happening yet on the short end of that time frame.

From what Rivian told me it was 2-8 weeks leaning towards the later. I am now 1 week in since ordering and have not received a vin or a window. Ordered on 6/16

Ordered standard config Launch Green on 06/11/26. Had a VIN a few days later (1192). Everything seemed to be moving quickly, but now I haven't heard anything. Anyone in Austin taken delivery yet? I was hoping to get luck and get it before the July 4 holiday. 😂
