Rivian made 7,363 of its EV pickups and SUVs in Q3

Rivian made 7,363 of its R1T pickup truck and R1S SUV during the three month period that ended on September 30. Rivian delivered 6,584 vehicles during the same period.

The goal of delivering 25,000 vehicles over the course of the next four years was set early in the year, and it was reiterated again last quarter, after the company announced that it had delivered 4,437 electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles during a 90-day period.

Rivian needs to make more than 10,000 EV in the final three months of the year to reach its target. Over the course of the first two quarters, it has increased production by over 70%. It will take a 75% boost from where they are now to reach 25,000 by year's end.

It hasn't provided a specific date for those yet, but the company will report its full Q3 earnings sometime this month. In Q2, it reported a loss of $1.71 billion and updated guidance to project a $5.45 billion total loss for the year.

The Rivian founder and CEO will be at the event in October in San Francisco or online.
