Rivian Automotive experienced a significant boost in its stock value, rising 5% on Thursday. This surge followed the release of its second quarter 2026 production and delivery data.
The electric vehicle manufacturer reported producing 12,613 vehicles and delivering 12,194 from its Illinois facility during the quarter ending June 30, 2026. These figures surpassed Rivian's earlier projections of 9,000 to 11,000 deliveries for the period.
This stronger-than-expected performance is attributed to substantial quarter-over-quarter growth in Rivian's EDV and R1 models. The recent introduction of the R2 model also contributed to the positive results.
Based on its Q2 achievements and a positive outlook for the remainder of 2026, Rivian has elevated its full-year delivery guidance. The company now forecasts delivering 65,000 to 70,000 vehicles, an increase from the previously stated range of 62,000 to 67,000.
