Yeah, that's what I have been saying, Rivian is performing to the plan they stated over a year ago. Yet industry anal-ysts and armchair production planning experts here get other ideas in their heads and express disappointment in production volumes and capacities that Rivian planned a year ago, and they are performing to plan. Crucify a company for doing what they said they would do. SMHL.https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1874178/000119312521321716/d157488ds1a.htm
Sounds like they are right on track with the S1 numbers.
Nov 2021 S1 Ammendment:
"Based on our current production forecast, we expect to fill our preorder backlog of approximately 55,400 R1 vehicles by the end of 2023. Our manufacturing facility in Normal, Illinois (the “Normal Factory”) is currently equipped to produce up to 150,000 vehicles annually (distributed between the R1 platform, which will be used to produce the R1T and R1S, and the RCV platform, which will be used to produce EDVs and other commercial vehicles), when the equipment is operated at full rate and on multiple shifts. The current annual installed capacity for the R1 platform and RCV platform is approximately 65,000 and 85,000 vehicles, respectively. We produced 104 R1T vehicles during the last week of October 2021, representing approximately 8% of our target R1 production rate. Our target is to produce approximately 1,310 R1 vehicles a week, which when annualized (assuming 49.6 working weeks per year), equates to the current installed R1 platform capacity of approximately 65,000 R1 vehicles annually."
