Rivian sees 2027 as its "inflection year" on R2 momentum and autonomy
Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe told CNBC that 2027 will be an "inflection year" for the company as it ramps up production of its midsize R2 SUV, with an entry-level model at about $45,000, and invests in software and autonomy. Rivian delivered a record 19,248 vehicles in the third quarter of 2026, up 46% year over year, and the R2 is already its best-selling vehicle by volume. The stock is down more than 80% since its November 2021 IPO.
