Horrible PR for a new company. I agree we can all understand a little increase, due to shortages etc. But $ 15,000 is a big slap in the face for loyal customers that have been waiting for years and months.
The price of EV's will go way down over time. Rivian is new at this and someday when they get their manufacturing down and improve the technology we will see the prices come way down. So maybe in some way its good. We can wait and see what happens in the EV market.
That would have been the right thing to do. A $15,000 jump is way out of line. I can understand a couple of thousand due to the cost of materials that have increased, but it sounds like to me they way must screwed up big time in pricing these vehicles. They are creating a lot of ill will for...
I agree, the letter does not mention LE. Lets hope that correct. It would not be good for them to put people through these long delays, then when it finally gets close, throw in a $10, 000 increase.
You could be right, never used one. Right now with all the crap in my garage and the length of the truck, I do not believe it will fit. I do know a lot of folks with collectable cars, keep them covered when not garaged.
The information I received stated that all launch buyers will be contacted by Thanksgiving. Spoke with a customer rep that said that was still the case. Since we are only a week and 1/2 away, has anyone heard anything.
I just feel that it is way over priced and will come down substantially. We must remember that very few vehicles have been produced and because communication has been lacking, who know when our orders will be filled. Love the company, but it will be a while before it reaches that valuation.
