Rivian planeja ‘lançamento mundial de produto’ em 7 de março – Autoblog

Uma cobertura de saída notícias locais de Laguna Beach, Califórnia, recapitularam uma reunião do conselho municipal onde Rivian representantes apareceram com um pedido grande o suficiente para fazer o páginas do Reddit e depois os fóruns Rivian. A bateria elétrica caminhão e fabricante de SUVs recentemente fez o South Coast Theatre em Laguna Beach, seu principal local de varejo nos EUA. Rivian disse ao conselho municipal it plans a “worldwide product launch event at the Rivian Theater” on March 7, 2024. As part of that, the automaker sought the right to display six vehicles on a grassy area along the Laguna Beach waterfront called Main Beach Park for a few hours. The company specified there’d be no extra lighting or amplified sound, so this wouldn’t be a party per se — like the one Volkswagen hospedado no caminho para a identificação. Zumbido — just a big exhibit and gathering. Some residents didn’t approve of the ask, but the council gave the go-ahead.

The questions for Rivian watchers, of course, are what’s going to be shown at the worldwide launch and what six-strong lineup will decorate the beach? The marquee product is expected to be the smaller R2 in SUV-styled R2S form, heavily favored since a map included in the council submission is labeled “Rivian R2 Launch.” 

CEO da empresa RJ Scaringe provocou o modelo mais barato durante uma sessão de perguntas e respostas no Instagram em maio passado, a imagem acima é uma captura de tela do evento. Diz-se que o R2 tem tamanho semelhante ao Jeep Grand Cherokee, starting prices thought to be in the $50K to $50K range. Back then, the R2 wasn’t scheduled to be delivered until sometime 2026, though, delayed from the original plans for 2025. If the R2 shows up in the California sun in two months, it could be merely as an opener for a long reservation period. 

There are only five vehicles on the above map, however. Three are numbered, two are labeled “LG.” If Rivian fans get their way, two of the showcases could be for rumores versões de alta potência do R1T e R1S. Um pôster do fórum Rivian disse a 2024 product update could reveal a 1,000-hp version of the pickup and SUV dubbed “Ascensão.” Prototypes were rumored to lift their front wheels off the pavement during hard launches. We have about six weeks to see what’s really going on.

We don’t need to guess about big moves Rivian’s made in the executive suites. In the past couple of months, Rivian’s added ex-Stellantis North America COO Carlo Materazzo, ex-Mercedes-Benz plant manager Arnehelm Mittlebach, and ex-Porsche and Apple mobility veteran Jonas Reinke. It’s shaping up to be a big year.
