Atlanta (AP) – It looks like the worst time of the electric car plant in the United States, but the Rivian car leaders say they hope that the company starts to work in a $ 5 billion in Georgia.
The California-based company is cracking on the ground on Eastern Atlanta in sponder of President Donald Trump Push to regain the electricity taxes. Starting on Sept 30, consumers will no longer qualify for up to $ 7,500 saving for each vehicle.
The Rivian Head Policy Manager Alan Hoffman said the company believes that it could sell electric vehicles not for the reasons for tax returns, but because they are high.
“We did not build the company based on the Society’s incentives,” Hoffman said. “And we will prove that we will succeed in the future.”
Georgia Plant is Key to a High Market and Benefits
Georgia plant, first proclaimed in 2021, is Rivian’s key to achieving profits. The company now makes a higher R1T Pickup truck and R1S Sport Utility, in Illinois, and the childbirth of Amazon and others. Its price prices begin with $ 71,000.
Illinois plant will start doing less R2 SUVs for the following year, with prices starting at $ 45,000. The Illinois plant will be able to collect 215,000 cars annually. But if R2 hits, and if Rivian successfully produces less R3, it will require additional dosage. The company said Georgia’s operation would be able to make 200,000 vehicles a year starting in 2028. It plans some 200,000 access to the power of the second stage, volume that will disseminate costs limited over many of vehicles.
Guess will be a big jump from 40,000 to 46,000 car rivian cars waiting to bring this year, down 52,000 last year. The company says it is reducing the production now in part in introducing 2026 models.
“By Rivian, it was done during death,” said Alex Oyler, Director of Auto Research Firm SBD. “We saw the Tesla that the key to making a profit is measurements, and you cannot measure if your cheaper car is $ 70,000. So they need that R2 rate and finally R3.”
Challenges in the electric motorine market
The sale growth reduces electrical electric vehicles in the United States, increasing only 1.5% in the first section of 2025, according to Cox Automotive.
Tesla is counted about 45% in the US Electric Vehicle Sales at the time, according to COX. But a bully loses the market assignment as some find: the General Motors Motors Sale of AnicMOR AV Sale increased to 13%. By comparison, the rivian had a 3% share in the first part of the year, after Tesla and six traditional movies.
But without Tesla, Rivian is the most successful for the first merchants.
The company originally affected a poor niche: Electricity of Electricity and SUVs. But the competition now includes the Ford’s F-150 lightning and Chevrolet Chevrolet Servato.
After the first public contribution of 2021, the Rivian shares have fallen over 80%, and automoker shares have broken the market for the broadcast shares. Rivian lost $ 1.66 billion at the first half of 2025.
At the same time, the Help A Ardor with electric cars cool. Stellantis last week cancel the Cham’s Electric Truck program. Ford delayed production in Tennessee’s new plant. And General General has abandoned techniques for building electric cars in the Sururban Detroit plant.
“With all the competition there in the market and the reduced development of Evs, he does not play Karivian Khind,” said Sami Fiorani, President from Deputy. “Anyway, there is still an EV market out there.”
$ 1.5 billion on base of 7,500 jobs
Georgia has promised 1.5 billion dollantons in the Rivian exchange of 7,500-page service activities at least $ 56,000 per year on average. Rivian cannot benefit from many foundations without having to meet work purposes, but the situation has already spent $ 175 million to buy land and improve roads.
Georgia Republican Gov. Brian Kemp, who has said that he wants Georgia “America’s Center, but he keeps confident, but says he is always confident, but says that he is sure that the company can carry out promises. its.
While Tesla has thousands of workers in California and Texas, some new car’s electricity plants were frightened. Two different divorced diversists have the prospect of combining vehicles with a GM plant in Lordstown, Ohio, we boarded. Hyundai builds Hyundai near Savannah is the best, producing it continues. However, the battery plant has been delayed by the US Immigration and the enforcement of 475 cultural culture, including over 300 South African Koreans.
Rivian had to make trucks away from this 2,000-acre (800-hectare next to the social, about 70 miles) in the east of Atlanta. As the company was burned with money in 2024, it stopped construction. But German Automacher Volkswagen agreed to invest in $ 5.8 billion in Rivian exchange of electronic technology and electronic technology. And then – President Joe Beni November management agreed to the loan rivian $ 6.6 billion to create a Georgian plant.
Despite TRUMPLA’s case of Trump in Evs, Hoffman said Rivian hoped the US Energy Department will distribute the loan, and the opposition to improve domestic production.
Some neighbors still opposed the plant
Rivian also faces opposition from residents from residents who claim that the plant is the wrong neighbor on farms and will defile underground water.
“I have planned to retire from the front porch and the largest project in Georgia should I go near me, in all places in the country?” Asked Eddie Clay, who lives below miles away. He says his / her hair water turned into mud after mining in the Rivian Site.
There are other Rivian challenges, including tax prices cost $ 2,000 per car, Trump administrators completed the company $ 140 million in EVS low prices, cutting. But Hoffman says Rivian says “this time is deducted.”
“We think we can compete with anyone there and ever give the opportunity, we will succeed,” he said.
