The Future of Rivian + Amazon + Ford Motors | w/ Warren Redlich

Amazon, which is backing Rivian along with Ford Motor Co., is buying 100,000 electric vans that are custom-built for Amazon Prime. The first vehicles were due to start making deliveries this year. Rivian recently raised $2.65 billion in new funding from T. Rowe Price Group Inc., in an attempt take on Tesla's upcoming Cybertruck. Rivian plans to build a full-size battery-powered sport-utility vehicle (R1S) and truck (R1T) at a plant in downstate Normal, a retooled former Mitsubishi Motors Corp. factory. Can Rivian dominate the EV truck market and the Tesla Cybertruck?

Excited to start working at the Rivian factory in a week! I'll be a post-assembly repair technician.

[@garybyrne2605]

very nice good luck.

[@brandoYT]

Post repair --- I guess that is better than waiting for it to break and then repair. Best post repair is no post repair -- making it right the first time, right??

[@victorvandyke9898]

Waiting more than 2 years for mine now. Ordered in Nov 2018. Should get mine in June, July.

[@SaltAndVi]

They can say they are aiming for the “adventure” side of the market but their pricing is premium. No doubt.

[@FYB.2024]

Nice video! added to my list :)

[@dannyschacht4274]

I feel that there is plenty room for CyberTruck, Lightning and the R1T in the market. All serve different niches

[@downriverbill]

I currently working auto industry. I truly believe that scalability is very achievable for Rivian with support from Ford and local suppliers that are already participating. The only unknown is the actual battery. I just can't nail down the supply chain and supplier facts

[@alexandrawhitelock6195]

Interesting, batteries and...national grid is foundational....if a ton of folks get EVs...there's gonna be a huge problem Charging needs to be FAST, available everywhere and...AFFORDABLE. Electricity in VT is insanely expensive...so til THIS changes, I'm stuck...🤷‍♀️

[@brandoYT]

@@alexandrawhitelock6195 charge at night when almost no demand --- no problem, right? Storage seems biggest problem. Using Dams ?? pump water back into Dam when over supply by wind or solar - not easy, but may be a good idea - engineers have to run the numbers.

Their analysis should be apples to apples. How many Tesla Roadsters were manufactured in Year 1 vs how many trucks, suvs and vans can Rivian manufacture in 2021? Year 2 vs 2022, etc.

[@clydecox2108]

I really like the vehicle, I don't like that it charges slowly and you can't charge it in a lot of places yet.

[@rsharpe1985]

Hurry up already I got this money I will invest when it hits the market just like the game of Texas hold them I’m going all in

[@downriverbill]

I think ford is providing support for product and production development, I also believe Ford is a good play. I work in the automotive industy. I am am not a finacial advisor but I do have a small position in Ford @$9.00

[@downriverbill]

If rivian has the battery,motor and good integration, I have no doubt about the scalability with support from Ford and the many recruited talent resources Rivian has acquired. The parts supply chain is close available and already participating. The battery supply is the only variable I can't nail down.

[@douglashagan65]

The stock is at 66 right now the minute Ford buys rivian are the stock will automatically jump to 100 opening IPO at this point it would be possibly could go up 3 to 400% once it starts

[@timw4369]

they could all become one company and it would make massive sense for this to happen. Amazon would get into the car business Ford would be saved from certain bankruptcy and Rivian would find their way into the market. It would be Amazon motors. This would be someone to take on the other big players. Someone is going to align with apple it would make sense for GM or even Stellantis to do so.

[@drewt5758]

This seems very likely to happen, good observation

[@goldensniper4you]

Why do they gotta look stupid
