One thing that is clear is that none of this matters if we have any kind of written purchase agreement from Rivian.
This would need to be in place before signature of the bill by Biden.
I really hope Rivian is working on loading a PBA into the website for every preorder holder ASAP.
There is...
The law as written in the text is extremely complex. Transition periods, battery content origin requirements, etc. going to be interesting to see this all parsed out.
This theory sounds nice on the surface, but seems really hard to believe.
Rivian has known of the high percentage of 20s for literally years.
If they are indeed “waiting until they sell enough 21s”, what is the long term plan? Do that forever?
Doesn’t really add up to me.
Very interesting we haven’t seen any of the free colors (silver or white) in the shop for a long time. I wonder if there is some thought given to this, i.e. they don’t want to make any more white or silver than they have to for pre March orders.
Thanks!
I can’t believe after 14 pages we don’t have a pic of glacier white with the 20” AT brights! I prefer them to the staple wheels and the $3500 for the AT darks is so painful.
