25,000 vehicles in 2022. Now shares of Rivian were up about 7% Tuesday morning. 
In addition, the stock had closed more than 3% lower. For that’s during the regular

Rivian Automotive said in a statement that it produced a total of 7,363 vehicles
at its Illinois factory in the third quarter and that 6,584 vehicles were delivered
to its customers during the period.

Rivian Automotive currently makes the [R1T](https://greenlivingguy.com/2019/03/rivian-r1t-plus-r1s-equals-an-electric-truck-and-suv/)
pickup, the R1S SUV, and delivery vans for Amazon at its factory in Normal, Illinois.
The company didn’t break out production or deliveries by model.

Rivian Automotive had originally expected to [build 50,000 vehicles](https://greenlivingguy.com/green-leitman-press/)
in 2022. But it [halved that guidance in March](https://www.cnbc.com/2022/03/10/rivian-rivn-earnings-q4-2021.html),
saying at the time that global supply-chain issues had “added a layer of complexity”
to its plan to increase production.

The company confirmed Monday that it still expects to meet that goal of 25,000 this
year. Year to date, through the third quarter, [Rivian has produced 14,317 vehicles](https://greenlivingguy.com/2023/10/rivian-vehicles-redefining-transportation-with-renewable-energy/).
