Rivian is an American electric vehicle manufacturer and automotive technology company and outdoor recreation company which was founded by CEO RJ Scaringe, who studied engineering and lean manufacturing in Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
A young child who was both a car-enthusiast and nature-lover enjoyed exploring nature more as he grew older
Scaringe, who had loved two things – nature and cars, since he was but a young child enjoyed exploring and spending time with nature as he grew up; but, Scaringe was well aware that the constant usage of automobiles was polluting the environment. With the desire to protect and preserve nature, He soon did less exploring and instead, adapted new habits that helped the environment such as biking to class and carrying around his own fork. He soon recognized the impact of automobiles and how it shaped the lives of people thus, with the help of the ever shifting technology and marketplace, he was determined to rethink mobility as we know it. After getting his PhD, Scaringe set out to create a change within the automotive industry that we have never seen before.Rivian states that their company’s vision is and has always been oriented towards pursuing “a vision for our planet’s future”. Their ability to create vehicles – most specifically SUVs – that are electric will prove to have a positive impact on our environment, especially when trying to shrink our environmental footprint whilst traveling long distances.
However, working in such an industry is not easy. According to MarketBeat, some of the main competitors of Rivian include Tesla, General Motors (GM), Lordstown Motors (RIDE), Stellantis (STLA), and FORD Motor (F).One of their main competitors is a well-known automotive company called Tesla. Funnily enough, many debates online surround the idea of Rivian being the next Tesla but despite this, each company shows their unique differences through both their vision and focus when making their products. For example, let us take a closer look at the difference between Rivian and Tesla’s SUVs – namely 2024 Rivian R1S vs 2024 Tesla Model X. According to an article written by George Kennedy, Rivian’s R1S is a much better pick compared to Tesla’s SUV – mostly because it is much more affordable, is more spacious, and has a longer range. On the other hand, if what you’re looking for is unique features and speed, then Tesla is a much better option.
How can we help Rivian to make a positive impact in the environment?
With Rivian’s dedication in reducing our environmental footprint while giving us the ability to travel long distances with our families, one thing that we can do to help make a positive impact in the environment is to make even the smallest change in our habits (similar to what Scaringe did when he was in university). By taking the first step to do these simple actions and making the tiniest efforts in helping the environment, we as individuals will have the capability to create a large impact in our world – particularly the environment.
