Rivian Automotive presented a comprehensive overview of its performance and future outlook during their Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 report. The company showcased a series of achievements and challenges that define their current position and trajectory. Rivian achieved a notable milestone in Q4 2024 with a positive gross margin, attributed to significant reductions in cost of goods sold (COGS) and a boost in per unit revenue. Specifically, the company succeeded in reducing automotive COGS by $31,000 per vehicle compared to the same period the previous year. Moreover, the introduction of newer, more expensive vehicle configurations, such as the Tri-Motor, contributed to increased average selling prices. The company’s revenue was further bolstered by regulatory credits and a joint venture with Volkswagen Group.
