Where is the Rivian factory?
I was visiting a friend in California, and I was kind of surprised to see the Rivian headquarters out in Irvine. I always thought they were located elsewhere. Where is Rivian’s manufacturing plant?

Although headquartered in Irvine, Rivian’s factory is actually in Normal, Illinois. While this location may seem arbitrary, Rivian chose it because they got a great deal on a former Mitsubishi Motors factory. When Mitsubishi decided to close the plant due to sluggish car sales, Rivian purchased it for a paltry $16 million, then refurbished it to produce its electric vehicles.
Due to the overwhelming demand for Rivian vehicles, the company has plans to build a $5 billion manufacturing plant in Georgia, although the time frame for completion and the specific location have not been finalized.
While the waiting list for a Rivian is almost four years, you can start prepping to buy one if you’re so inclined by lowering your
