Rivian's Electric Van Outsold Its Rivals Combined—By 70%

Rivian’s electric van is outselling the competition by a wide margin—again.

The company’s commercial EV even outsold the R1T pickup in the second quarter.

The ECV has dominated the American electric van segment for many months.

Rivian’s van is the undisputed leader of the American electric van market, according to sales data from Cox Automotive. The California startup’s only commercial vehicle has outsold its competitors combined by 70% and finished the second quarter as the company’s second-best-selling model, after the R1S SUV.

The Rivian Commercial Van (RCV) sold 4,003 units from April through June, a solid 48.2% increase over the same period last year. Meanwhile, the Chevrolet BrightDrop, which was discontinued last year, finished second, with 460 sales, down 65.1% year over year.
