Here's a good video from the Rivian Stories podcast that covers their R1S delay predictions.
Before that, they posted this:
Before that, they posted this:
Exactly . Very boring and uninformative. GenerallyI watched that video and it contains zero information. They just speculate. Those guys are very hit or miss, this one's a miss.
Dear Sciencegeek:Here I'll talk to you:
"We're having production issues, multiple headwinds. We're going to try to hit our targets this year, but may slip a little. Your anticipated delivery date might slip by a couple of months as a result. Sorry, we're still a startup and as Elon Musk has said, production is hell."
What else do you need to know?
I am sorry but Rivian hasn't provided information to the public? I have a date, so does just about everyone else for this year. Are those dates slipping maybe, we will know soon. But what else should they do. 'Hey customers we are guessing that maybe there will be a 3 month delay, or maybe 6 or maybe none but don't complain at least we are talking to you'. They aren't talking because they don't have real data to share, if they did they would share it.Not very informative, that's true. But let's not forget that it's not very informative because Rivian has hit another time target it isn't making and the Company isn't saying anything about it to it's loyal fan base.
