Rivian Expands Commercial Van Sales to All U.S. Businesses

The EV maker ends Amazon exclusivity and opens orders for its RCV 500 and 700 models to fleet customers nationwide.

  • Rivian's commercial vans, previously exclusive to Amazon, are now available for purchase by any U.S. business with a registered fleet.
  • The company offers two models, the RCV 500 and RCV 700, with starting prices of $79,900 and $83,900, respectively, and both qualify for a $7,500 federal tax credit.
  • Rivian has delivered 20,000 vans to Amazon so far, with plans to fulfill a 100,000-vehicle order by 2030, while also conducting successful trials with other large fleets like AT&T.
  • The vans feature safety tools like automatic emergency braking and 360-degree visibility, as well as integrated software for fleet management and operational efficiency.
  • This move marks a strategic shift for Rivian as it seeks to diversify revenue streams and stabilize its financial position while preparing for the release of its R2 SUVs in 2026.
