R1S, R1T, R2 and the Adventure Network — Rivian coverage from the factory floor to the trailhead.
Washington state’s Senate Transportation Committee has scheduled an executive session on SB 6354 for February 27 — a bill that would open the state’s auto market to direct sales by Rivian, Lucid, and other battery electric vehicle manufacturers that have never operated through a franchised dealer network. If it clears committee, passes the full Senate,…
The last time Rivian beat earnings expectations, in November 2025, October EV sales were already in freefall. The stock popped, the headlines cheered, and then reality showed up in the form of a 31% Q4 delivery plunge. Today’s Q4 report reads differently. Not because the backward-looking numbers are pretty, but because the forward-looking guidance just…
Six days after announcing the death of the Model S and Model X, Tesla quietly dropped a new Model Y variant into its U.S. configurator that tells you everything about where the company is headed. The Model Y All-Wheel Drive, priced at $41,990, fills a $7,000 hole that existed in Tesla’s lineup since the stripped-down…
The timing tells you everything about Rivian’s strategy. While the company hemorrhages cash and cuts jobs, it’s quietly building infrastructure for a future that hinges entirely on the R2’s success. Rivian filed plans Tuesday with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation for a $9.5 million service and sales center in Round Rock, a fast-growing…
Cox Automotive’s Q4 2025 Kelley Blue Book EV Sales Report landed this morning, and while the headline numbers look familiar, the underlying story is anything but. Tesla’s Model Y and Model 3 still dominate the top two positions, but the real drama unfolds when you compare the first nine months of 2025 to Q4. The…
Nearly 20,000 Rivian R1T and R1S owners just discovered their vehicles may have a ticking time bomb in the rear suspension, and the culprit isn’t a manufacturing defect. It’s Rivian’s own service technicians. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed on January 8, 2026, that Rivian is recalling 19,641 vehicles because of a rear suspension…
I’ve spent the past year documenting what happens when you build an industry on government subsidies. Now we have the data to prove what we suspected all along: the $7,500 federal tax credit never drove genuine EV demand. Deloitte’s 2026 Global Automotive Consumer Study, released today, surveyed more than 28,500 consumers across 27 countries between…
I’ve been covering electric sports car announcements for years, and they all sound the same: massive battery, blistering charging speed, tablet-sized touchscreen, skateboard platform. Caterham’s Project V, which just made its U.S. debut at CES in Las Vegas, deliberately ignores every item on that checklist. “We don’t really care about charging time. We care about…
