Rivian EDV

The Rivian EDV, or Electric Delivery Van, and its ECV counterpart, also sold as the Delivery, are battery-electric cargo vans built by Rivian. Amazon, an investor in Rivian, ordered 100,000 delivery vehicles in September 2019, and the first production EDV-700 was completed and delivered to Amazon in December 2021. Deployment began in nine US cities in July 2022. In November 2023 Rivian opened sales to other fleets as the ECV or Delivery, with minor cosmetic changes. The vans use the RCV platform, derived from the R1 platform of the R1T and R1S, and come in three sizes with nominal cargo volumes of 500, 700 or 900 cubic feet. Early vans used two Bosch-sourced front motors, and in the first quarter of 2023 Rivian moved to a single in-house Enduro motor and lithium iron phosphate batteries.
