The first Rivian Electric Delivery Vans have arrived in Canada as Amazon announced that 50 vans are hitting the road to serve the Vancouver area – marking an exciting milestone in our nearly five-year history of operations in Canada.

“We built this state-of-the-art Electric Delivery Van from the ground up, and it's unlike anything else in the market. Launching our vans in Canada is a proud moment for our entire team,” said Erica Tsypin, Director, B2B Sales & Partnerships, Rivian. “Since our first production vans hit the road in 2022, Rivian and Amazon have learned quite a lot together, which has allowed us to continuously improve the vehicle’s performance, safety and durability as Amazon has scaled these vans across many climates and geographies.”

Rivian’s Electric Delivery Van is engineered with a focus on efficiency and improved productivity, making it an excellent choice for fleets. The van is designed not only to meet the demands of long days on the road, but it also takes the environment into consideration.

“Decarbonized transportation is a huge part of Amazon’s goal for net-zero carbon emissions across operations by 2040. It’s partners like Rivian that make this goal feasible,” said Emily Barber, Director of Global Fleet and Products at Amazon. “We are bringing 100,000 Rivian Electric Delivery Vans on the road by 2030. Today, we have more than 35,000 Electric Delivery Vans globally that have delivered more than 1.5 billion packages. Our mission is to build the safest, most sustainable and advanced fleet in the world.”

Rivian worked closely with real Amazon drivers throughout the design progress. The van includes features like 360-degree cameras for driver safety, and patented, energy-saving microclimate seats for all-weather comfort.

“We’re excited to showcase these vehicles in our communities, bringing packages right to the customers' front door with care and confidence,” said Gary Brar, owner of Rev Couriers Services LTD (REVC), which is one of Amazon’s Delivery Service Partners in the Vancouver area. “We are proud to be a part of this next chapter of electric vehicles in our fleet.”

Rivian has continued to invest in Canada for the nearly five years it has operated in the country. Currently, Rivian has one unique space in downtown Vancouver, as well as four service and delivery centers in Toronto, Ontario; Richmond, British Columbia; Montreal, Quebec; and Calgary, Alberta. Rivian also has growing software engineering hubs in downtown Vancouver and Toronto, including engineers from the company’s joint venture, Rivian Volkswagen Group Technologies.
