Even if they\u2019re not delivering to your house specifically, you may notice them based on a \u201cunique external sound\u201d output when the quiet electric vehicle is parked or moving slowly.<\/p>\n

<\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\nWhen then-CEO Jeff Bezos announced a deal with the EV startup in 2019 to buy 100,000 vans, he said they should be on the road by 2024. Now, Amazon projects to hit 100,000 vans on the road by 2030, but they should be on the road soon in cities including Baltimore, Chicago, Dallas, Kansas City, Nashville, Phoenix, San Diego, Seattle, and St. Louis \u2014 and reach 100 cities by the end of this year.<\/p>\nRivian-powered deliveries started in earnest last year with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2021\/2\/3\/22264174\/amazon-rivian-electric-delivery-van-la-test-cities\">a few of the vans in Los Angeles<\/a>, but now they\u2019re spreading out. Amazon said delivery tests since last year covered over 90,000 miles and 430,000 packages while Rivian tweaked performance, safety, and driver comfort features. <\/p>\n\u201cToday marks a significant milestone in our Climate Pledge commitment,\u201d said Amazon CEO Andy Jassy. \u201cRivian was one of the first companies Amazon invested in through the Climate Pledge Fund, and we\u2019re just getting started on our journey to have 100,000 of Rivian\u2019s vehicles on the road by 2030. And, in addition to being sustainable, these new vehicles are also great for drivers\u2014they were designed with driver input and feedback along the way, and they\u2019re among the safest and most comfortable delivery vehicles on the road today.\u201d <\/p>\nSimilarly, Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe said, \u201cTo say this is an exciting moment is an understatement\u2014we\u2019re thrilled to see this partnership has kickstarted decarbonization projects across the logistics delivery industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<code> <\/br><\/code><\/p>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/7\/21\/23272649\/rivian-amazon-electric-delivery-vehicle-100-cities-2022\">https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/7\/21\/23272649\/rivian-amazon-electric-delivery-vehicle-100-cities-2022<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Source: Rivian\u2019s R1T electric trucks are becoming increasingly visible across the US, and now Amazon reveals the electric delivery vans it\u2019s buying from Rivian are ready for a nationwide rollout.
