Recent Stock Surge: Rivian Automotive has seen a significant spike in its stock price recently, with reports of over a 60% increase year-to-date and a new 52-week high. Discussions on social media highlight excitement around the company’s advancements in AI and autonomy, particularly following their Autonomy & AI Day event. Many are pointing to the upcoming R2 SUV launch in 2026 as a potential game-changer for the electric vehicle maker.
Mixed Opinions: While optimism dominates, some skepticism persists on social media about Rivian’s short-term challenges, including high cash burn and weaker delivery numbers. Concerns over production delays and a recent recall of over 34,000 vehicles due to a seatbelt issue have also surfaced.
