Rivian dropped a positive note today to investors on production and delivery totals for the quarter ending June 30, 2026. The company produced 12,613 vehicles at its manufacturing facility in Normal, Illinois, and delivered 12,194 vehicles. That compares very favorably to the 9000/11,000 numbers they had predicted. Looking forward, Rivian is also driving forecasts up… Rivian is also raising its full-year 2026 delivery guidance from 62,000-67,000 vehicles to 65,000 – 70,000. While not a huge increase there, it likely shows that Rivian has eliminated some of the supply bottlenecks that they’ve anticipated, and at the same time, have seen a notable rise in demand. Irvine, California, July 2, 2026: Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ: RIVN) today announced production and delivery totals for the quarter ending June 30, 2026. The company produced 12,613 vehicles at its manufacturing facility in Normal, Illinois and delivered 12,194 vehicles during the same period. Delivery results topped Rivian’s outlook of 9,000 to 11,000 vehicles for the quarter due to robust growth quarter-over-quarter in EDV and R1 coupled with the introduction of R2 deliveries. As a result of the progress Rivian has made, and the production and delivery outlook for the second half of the year, the company is today raising its full year 2026 delivery guidance from 62,000 – 67,000 vehicles, to 65,000 – 70,000. The company also announced that on July 30, 2026, after market close, it will release its second quarter 2026 financial results. Rivian will host an audio webcast at 5:00 p.m. ET the same day to discuss the performance and outlook for the business. The live webcast will be available at https://rivian-q2-earnings-webcast-2026.open-exchange.net/ and a replay will be available for four weeks at www.rivian.com/investors following the webcast. Electrek’s take: It is refreshing to see an all-electric vehicle manufacturer that under-promises and over-delivers. Rivian’s deliveries were no doubt helped by the Iran War gas prices but manufacturing also seems to be going as well as could be expected. As I stated in my review of the R2, I think they will sell as many of these as they can make for the foreseeable. The one caveat there is that I think a lot of early adopters will be waiting for the Lidar/computer hardware updates that Rivian plans for later this year, and to see them actually deliver 240V Vehicle to grid/home/X capabilities that their vehicles have been promising.
