About

Rivian, the electric vehicle manufacturer, has laid off approximately 140 employees, representing about 1% of its workforce, as part of ongoing efforts to improve operational efficiency ahead of the 2026 launch of its more affordable R2 SUV. The cuts, confirmed in late June 2025, primarily affected the manufacturing team, with the company citing the elimination of roles that created process inefficiencies. This follows previous workforce reductions in recent years. Rivian, which began 2025 with over 14,800 employees in North America and Europe, is encouraging affected staff to apply for other open positions within the company.
