A Rivian representative told Bloomberg that the automaker is presently focused on achieving its delivery targets for R1T, R1S, and Amazon’s delivery vehicles in 2021.

Supposedly, it can carry 11,000 pounds and drive for approximately 300 miles on a single charge. The startup is said to be making 100,000 Amazon delivery vehicles.
