So we encourage you to join (or start) special-interest and regional-based Rivian clubs at: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/group-categories/clubs-groups.1/
Very interesting presentation with clear expectations of volumes per model through to 2025.
I really hope you are right, but at some point economies of scale are going to compete with the basic economic laws of supply and demand. We are all on here daily absorbing every theory of why Rivian has botched communications about production delays, and battery supply is near the top of that list. There are certainly plenty of plans for expanding battery production, but by the time they build out that capacity the raw materials production might be unable to keep pace. 2025 seems optimistic to me. And in the next 6-12 months, any vehicle any of us choose to pre-order is very likely going to be more expensive than today's price. We'll see in a few years.
The current driving dynamics and performance of the P2 pushed it tonight near the top of my list. Not gonna buy a car, but damn it looks fun.
I almost bought this car in the beginning of the year. Of all the EVs I test drove, this thing is the most fun to drive. Polestar also just announced a 50KW power bump for owners in Europe as an OTA update. This option has not come to NA yet. They have significantly upgraded this vehicle in the year it has been in the market.
I thought about that, but realized I have a friend with multiple "first borns"; One with each of his wives. When I couldn't make it to his second wedding ("Hello! Rivalry football game!" At least he understood), I assured him I wouldn't miss the next one. I've now made it to three of the four, and all of the kids' graduations.Apparently the powers that be aren't that picky if they're asking for multiple first borns
