’s electric delivery vans numbers are slowly but surely growing in Amazon’s huge delivery vehicle fleet. The have already made over 5 million deliveries in the U.S., according to

The plan is for Rivian to sell 100,000 vans to , but for now the EDVs serve a very small portion of the company’s delivery fleet. It reportedly has 30,000 branded delivery vehicles and 20,000 branded trailers. So, 1,000 EDVs is a small number in comparison.

During the third quarter of 2022 (a three-month period that ended on September 30), Rivian reportedly built 7,363 EVDs, and . During the same timeframe, 6,584 of those vehicles were delivered to customers. It’s a slow ramp up for the Irvine, California-based EV startup, and only time will tell if it can hit the revised 100,000 Amazon EDV delivery target of 2030.
