Rivian announced reaching its 100,000th vehicle production milestone and introduced a new EV model, the R2 SUV, aimed at competing with Tesla's Model Y. Despite increased deliveries, the company continues to incur losses but aims for a positive gross profit by Q4 2024. Rivian's stock has declined over 50% year-to-date.
The production milestone and introduction of a new model indicate progress and potential for future growth, which could be positive for investors. However, ongoing losses and a significant year-to-date stock decline suggest a cautious short-term outlook. The company's aim for a positive gross profit by Q4 2024 introduces a potential turning point, but the timeline and current financial performance introduce uncertainty.
