When you see photos of Rivian's electric SUVs in the media, they're often crossing rivers, scaling mountains and braving some trek across a barren terrain. But Rivian's biggest test yet won't be some off-roading adventure: it will be crossing the Valley of Death. That, as climate news publication Heatmap and other outlets have put it, is the gap between scaling up operations and getting a high-volume product on the road that can actually pay for those enormous capital costs.
A leak of alleged data from Rivian's website yesterday indicated the SUV will start at $47,500, offer a range of up to 330 miles and pack a Tesla-style North American Charging Standard plug. If true, that last detail alone is groundbreaking; it will be the first non-Tesla EV to be compatible with Tesla's vast Supercharger network from the factory, without needing to use an adapter.
