Business Wire
Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ: RIVN) today announced that it
will enable other companies to purchase its custom-designed Rivian
Commercial Van. This move provides companies all around the world
more opportunity to electrify their delivery fleets with a
state-of-the-art vehicle, which will help to further reduce CO2
emissions.
The Rivian Commercial Van is the platform on which Amazon’s
custom electric delivery van is based, and is designed from the
ground up prioritizing safety, driver comfort, and sustainability.
Safety features include automatic emergency braking, collision
warnings, and 360-degree visibility – meaning the Rivian Commercial
Van is engineered to be among the safest vehicles on the road
today.
“Rivian and Amazon share a mission to decarbonize last mile
delivery and have been working together since 2019 to make that a
reality,” said Udit Madan, vice president of transportation at
Amazon. “This has been part of our plan with Rivian from the
beginning – we’ve always said that we want others to benefit from
their technology in the long run because having more electric
delivery vehicles on the road is good for our communities and our
planet.”
With the two available vehicle sizes, the vans have a payload of
up to 2,734 lb. and up to a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of up to
9,500 lb. Rivian’s in-house software stack controls nearly every
interaction, from unlocking the vehicle and opening the door, to
charging and acceleration. When applied to the commercial space,
this enables Rivian to provide easy access to critical fleet
information – including real-time data and remote commands, driver
and vehicle insights, alerts and analytics. These tools streamline
fleet ownership and minimize costs, while increasing safety and
productivity.
“We’re excited to open sales of our electric commercial van to
more businesses. Around a quarter of CO2 emitted in the
transportation sector in the US comes from commercial vehicles, so
it’s imperative we do all we can as soon as possible to help cut
emissions,” said RJ Scaringe, CEO of Rivian. “Amazon is, and will
remain, a key partner for us, and we look forward to continuing to
work closely with the Amazon team as we help them to achieve their
Climate Pledge goal.”
