Rivian (RIVN) Q3 deliveries beat expectations as it narrows its annual delivery guidance
Rivian shared its completed tallies of EVs produced and customer deliveries for Q3 2025 ahead of its full financial report next month. The results remain encouraging.
Rivian ($RIVN) has shared its first glimpse of Q3 2025 results, and they are on track (and in some cases, better) than expectations. When we reported on Rivian’s Q2 2025 results in August, we noted that BEV production was way down. The American automaker built a mere 5,979 vehicles, compared to 14,611 in Q1, although we did point out that deliveries were still up (10,661 vs. 8,640 in Q1 2025).
Rivian cited the reason for limiting production last quarter as “primarily due to a variety of supply chain complexities partially driven by shifts in trade policy.” Despite the lower production numbers, Rivian relayed that it would stay on pace with its delivery guidance for 2025 and was expecting an even better Q3.
Today, Rivian shared its production numbers and total deliveries for Q3, both of which are up, keeping the company’s annual guidance on track.
Rivian reported over 13,000 deliveries in Q3 2025
As per usual, Rivian teased its complete quarterly financial report by sharing its production and delivery numbers for the past three months ending September 30, 2025. According to the automaker, it produced 10,720 vehicles at its manufacturing facility in Normal, Illinois.
Additionally, Rivian is reporting 13,201 deliveries for the quarter, besting its expectation of 12,955 deliveries by a solid 246 vehicles. As we move into Q4, Rivian has also honed in on its annual guidance in deliveries, which is now expected to land somewhere between 41,500 to 43,500 BEVs.
Lastly, Rivian set a date for the full release of its Q3 2025 financial results. We will have those after market close on November 4th, 2025 and will be sure to follow up with a comprehensive report for you.
As always, Rivian will host an audio webcast at 5:00 PM ET on the 4th in addition to a live webcast you can tune into here.
