I just saw a Rivian delivery van from Hello Fresh in my neighborhood. I thought Rivian only built the van for Amazon? After doing some research, Hello Fresh is the second customer for the van.

I know know if it's the cheerful look of them or just me being happy to see more EVs, but it always puts a smile on my face when I see the Rivian vans.
 
I don’t like the look of the front end, it looks like the design was taken from a child’s drawing of a van. Hopefully it’s that way so that it’s easy to repair, unlike the bed of the other rivian.
 
Rivian ended their agreement of exclusivity in 2023 with Amazon so pretty much any company can get this van now.

I wouldn't be surprised if we eventually see Amazon migrate towards SLATE built trucks in the future if it ends up becoming successful.
 
I wish they made a passenger version, but it would need a bigger battery. These vans were specifically designed with a smaller battery due to Amazon having lots of light weight packages and short delivery routes.
