Founded in 2009 by Robert "RJ" Scaringe, Rivian Automotive, Inc. is an American electric vehicle manufacturer. Initially named Mainstream Motors, then Avera Automotive, the company adopted the name Rivian in 2011, inspired by the Indian River in Florida, where Scaringe grew up. In 2017, Rivian acquired a former Mitsubishi plant in Normal, Illinois, to establish its production facility. In 2021, Rivian launched its first model, the R1T, an all-electric pickup truck, followed by the R1S, an electric SUV.

In 2021, Rivian went public, raising over $13.5 billion in its initial public offering. In 2025, Rivian announced the R2 model, a more affordable electric SUV, aiming to expand its lineup and make electric vehicles more accessible. (en.wikipedia.org)
