AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/13 Report--
Recently, according to foreign media reports, General Motors and Amazon are planning to invest in electric pickup maker Rivian. The results of the investment are expected to be announced within February, according to industry insiders, there are still many uncertainties in the investment. If GM and Amazon succeed in the investment, the company's market value will increase by at least $1 billion in an instant, and the investor will also get a stake in the company.
According to GM's previous email statement, it expressed its admiration for Rivian's contribution to creating a pollution-free, all-electric future. Judging from the current negotiation process between the two sides, GM and Amazon still do not respond to the investment.
According to Rivian, the electric car startup Rivian was founded in 2009, and its founder, RJ Scaringe, graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Lawrence Achram, the chief engineer, is in charge of the development and design of the vehicle platform. He previously worked at Chrysler and was involved in the design of the famous Chrysler 300 and Chrysler Crossfire. Gary Gloceri is in charge of powertrain research and development and was previously involved in the development of the Ford focus electric version as chief powertrain engineer. The latest models of Rivian are A1T and A1C. A1T is a pure electric pickup truck model, the body size is slightly smaller than Ford F150, A1C is pure electric SUV model.
Rivian was once regarded by the US auto market as one of Tesla's challengers. GM will transform its product line around electrification in the future, and Amazon also plans to launch self-driving cars in the auto market. Once successful investment will pose a threat to Tesla's dominant position in the field of electric vehicles.
