Rivian: Delivery News
https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a4...n-fleet-sales/
Rivian will now sell you its electric commercial delivery vans, even if your name isn't Amazon or Jeff Bezos. The manufacturer had an exclusive partnership with the online shopping company since 2019, when Amazon put in an order for 100,000 delivery vehicles from the manufacturer. Now Rivian is opening up sales to fleets around the world.
Fleet sales consist of two sizes for the cargo vans. The Delivery 500 is the smaller of the two vans, and features roughly 500 cubic feet of storage (487 to be exact). It's good for up to a 2734 pound payload in the back, while the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) is 9350 pounds. The larger Delivery 700 van is longer and wider than the 500, and brings interior storage space up to 652 cubic feet. Interestingly, the payload is slightly lower than that of the smaller van at 2513 pounds, though the GVWR is increased at 9500 pounds.
Both vans are front-wheel drive, and according to Rivian, the 500 has an estimated maximum range of 161 miles, while the larger size and weight of the 700 bring that figure down to 153 miles. Rivian hasn't shared the battery sizes or electric motor specifics for the cargo vans, but we're assuming the public vans utilize the same technology as the Amazon vans. That means a lithium-iron phosphate battery pack and Rivian's in-house "Enduro" electric motor that the Amazon EDV vans use. We do know that the vans are capable of both J1772 and CCS1 charging at speeds up to 100 kW.
Pricing for the smaller 500 starts at $83,000, while pricing for the larger 700 rounds that figure up to $87,000.
