🌍✨ Rivian’s electric van gets 30% more range and AWD, now delivering
Why we’re watching: Rivian has started delivering the first major hardware upgrade to its electric van since production began in 2021: a bigger LFP battery pack good for 30% more range, and a new dual-motor AWD version.
The company confirmed in its Q3 2026 shareholder presentation that deliveries of the new variants began in early October. 💚
That’s the first real spec bump for a van that has been stuck at about 160 miles of rated range for years.
