Back in early 2019, just after completing a $700 million funding round, Rivian founder and CEO R.J. Scaringe outlined the company’s future plans in a interview. One of the plans was to have six vehicles in its lineup by 2025. Two years later, with the launch of the R1T and R1S coming in September, Rivian is fueling speculation about those future plans.

The filings were all done last Friday, July 23rd. The names all follow the S and T nomenclature Rivian has been using and span R3S-5S and R3T-5T.

Whatever is coming should be interesting. With two major product launches happening soon, an EV delivery vehicle production not far behind, and for another factory, Rivian’s future looks bright. Other than Lucid, Rivian is closer than nearly all the other EV startups in bringing an actual product to market. And after $2.5 billion in funding the company may meet its 2025 goal of a six-vehicle lineup.
