Today we announced the launch of our Rivian Commercial Van to businesses across the US in 2024.

These all-electric commercial vans support the health of our planet by enabling fleets to operate with zero tailpipe emissions.

Built on the same platform as the Amazon Electric Delivery Van (EDV), the Rivian Commercial Van represents a paradigm shift for commercial transportation. With Amazon’s commitment to bring 100,000 EDVs on the road by 2030, as well as the opportunity to deploy the Rivian Commercial Van across the country, fleets will help save millions of metric tons of carbon per year across their communities.

Designed to set a new standard for safety, sustainability and ownership cost, the Rivian Commercial Van is equipped to be one of the safest and most technologically advanced vehicles on the road today. The standard safety features include automatic emergency braking, sophisticated driver assistance features, three airbags and a 360-degree camera system, which the driver can view on the 15.6’’ center display screen to understand their surroundings. The van's design also focuses on efficiency and ergonomics for the driver, and includes a sliding curb-side door, a rear roll-up door, an automated bulk-head door, heated and cooled drivers’ seat and heated steering wheel. The smaller of the two van sizes, perfect for urban settings, starts with a 9,350 lb Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), a 2,734 lb payload and a 157.5 inch wheelbase.

“Around a quarter of CO2 emitted in the US transportation sector comes from commercial vans. We can make a real difference in helping businesses reduce their carbon output, to help make our cities and our planet less polluted.”

Rivian’s in-house software stack controls nearly every interaction, from unlocking the vehicle and automatically opening the bulk-head door, to charging and acceleration controls. This enables Rivian to provide easy access to critical fleet information, including real-time data and remote commands, driver and vehicle insights, alerts and analytics. These tools streamline fleet ownership and minimize costs, while increasing safety and productivity.

Companies across the globe have expressed strong interest in the Rivian Commercial Van as they look to reduce their CO2 output. To maximize our environmental impact, we will initially prioritize larger fleet requests and begin small scale deployments in 2024, prior to scaling deliveries in 2025.
