Is Rivian Working On Another Electric Vehicle? Electric Truck Maker Applies For Another Trademark
While the launch of Rivan’s R1T electric truck and R1S electric SUV has been pushed back until 2021 because of the coronavirus pandemic, the automaker has recently filed for two new trademarks that may give a glimpse into what it has planned for the future.
The first trademark that Rivian applied for is the R1V, Rivian Owners Forum reported. The R1V trademark is speculated by the forum and other news reports to be the electrified van that Rivian is currently working on for Amazon.
Amazon took order of 100,000 delivery vans from Rivian, which has been quietly working on the development of the vehicles, which until this point have gone without a moniker.
The second trademark that Rivian applied for was the R2X, the forum said. The R2X falls under the Land vehicles and parts category, but it doesn’t specify exactly what the vehicle will be. Rivian Owners Forum has high hopes that the R2X is an ATV of sorts that will fit into the back of the R1T truck’s bed.
While it is unclear if the R2X is an ATV or another off-road type vehicle is unclear, but Rivian has shown interest in developing an electric rally car. Still, it is unknown if the R2X is the rally car it spoke of or another all-new electric vehicle that EV enthusiasts can look forward to in the near future.
