Official Rivian Email: Refreshed Delivery Window update for 'end of January'

[NormalLife]

I hope I don't get pushed out again?

I see you are an early '21 preorder with Apr-June delivery window. Did you get the confirm your configuration email last week? I am in a similar boat with regards to pre-order and delivery estimate, but was not asked to confirm my config. If any '21 pre-orders received the confirm config email, I haven't seen mention of it yet. Just curious

What does it mean if I got the email but already took delivery months ago?

It means they are taking it back and giving it to someone else to fulfill orders.

Ugh!!!
I am so torn. I think I want to add the underbody shield to my confirmed configuration, but I don’t want to lose my Apr-June delivery window.

It seems to me the cycle they are trying to implement for most with standard pack orders is:

1. Get people to settle their configurations every quarter on the 15th.
2. Give a conservative window that is around 4-6 months out from that date.
3. Based on what they think they will be making and other factors, get as many as possible to confirm their configurations.
4. Deliver those vehicles within the next quarter, hopefully before or within the window.
5. Rinse, repeat.

Does that mean someone receiving this email can hope to get their R1 in about 6 months?

I mean, it brought so much joy last time they updated the delivery windows...

Anyone have any real insight as to which configurations are more likely to get early batches? For example, are certain wheels or colors more common/accessible? Or, would factory PPF put you at the back of the line, etc? Before I confirm, I don't want to shoot myself in the foot by picking some less popular, or harder to source option, which may further delay delivery.

I asked my guide about wheels, underbody, etc this morning. Aside from OC being last go go into production, it sounded like all combos are being produced now. Wheels weren’t a problem. I’m locked on colors so didn’t ask about that, but I’m sure BM is the best interior to have for delivery purposes.

I added Ocean Coast after the updated wood. I'm pretty sure that moved me from Q2 to Q3 of this year as I was a 1H23, but then moved to July-Sept.

I did just add the 22s and I'm pending. Hoping that still keeps me in July-Sept.

I'm sure everyone nearly everyone else got this message as well, but be sure to update your Account/Configuration for changes by end of day, Jan 15th to get an accurate next Delivery Estimate:

Have fun gritting your teeth until then... ?

Bad news Tony returns...

Slightly different one for those who confirmed configuration. I'm hoping that went to everyone as well.

Looks like we can glean from this message the new dates will be the end of the first month in the quarter and any changes you want to make should be done before the 15th of those months.

For now....

 

[R1Sky Business]

Lets hope nobody gets pushed out further....but that is my expectation

Easy now....this is Rivian we're talking about

 

[R1Sky Business]

I hope that is not the case. I locked in my configuration and finished the first 7 steps just after the new year. I would be hugely dissatisfied if my Feb-Mar estimated delivery time was pushed out a quarter.

Just prep for the worse
