The revenue per vehicle is calculated as total revenue recognized divided by the number of vehicles delivered.
That said, Rivian’s revenue per vehicle reached nearly $85,000 as of 2Q 2023, a record figure since 2022.
A trend worth mentioning is the rise of Rivian’s revenue per vehicle since 2022 and the much higher revenue per vehicle of Rivian compared to other automobile companies as seen in this article – Revenue Per Vehicle Of Major Automobile Companies.
For example, Tesla earned a revenue per vehicle of only $53,000. At the same time, those of Chinese automakers were much lower, according to this article – Tesla Vs Nio, Xpev, And Li Auto In Revenue Per Vehicle.
Rivian needs to bring its revenue per vehicle or vehicle selling price down to remain competitive in the EV market.
Conclusion
Rivian Automotive is a relatively young automobile company expected to produce only 50,000 vehicles in 2023.
Apart from that, Rivian has a much higher vehicle selling price or revenue per vehicle compared to other EV makers.
To remain competitive in the EV market, Rivian has to bring its cost down and, therefore, the revenue per vehicle delivered.
Can the upcoming R2 platform be the game-changer for Rivian?
We will see.
