This is well known nothing burger. Every agreement shows 100 miles to allow for test driving, delivery, etc. From owner reports over the past few years, 99.9% vehicles are delivered with 15 - 30 miles on them. Mine was 22.

This gets asked every couple of weeks. It’s just a placeholder number.

2022 Rivian R1T LE
So, I'm fairly certain Rivian can reset the odometer to zero when they want pre-sale/delivery.

Evidence: My lease paperwork said 100mi (like everyone else here), the truck said ~36mi on the ODO, and the KICKER - the trip [A] was well over 250 miles. Guess they didn't reset it...

Long story short, the delivery mileage is meaningless.
This would be odometer fraud and highly illegal.

Perhaps, OR consider another possibility that has been discussed here in the past. Users have reported that after a software update, their trip meters got glitched, reset, etc.
