They’ve been around for about two years.
We just had a huge new Amazon Distribution Center open here in Virginia Beach with another to open just across the road, that's probably why I am just now seeing them.

Please tell what do they sound like? None here it is subbed out.

Wonder how they are charging them? Do they have banks of private amazon DCFC or just 17,000 L2's at 120 stations to date. Ask the amazon guy.
in Portland they charge at their dispatch center... the majority of Amazon trucks I see are these Rivians... very cool in my opinion.

Hugs? Or ‘I like it thiiiiisssss much’


The Van sounds like the Toyota hybrid backing up (when under 30mph I think). But they also beep the entire time they’re parked here for some reason, like our back up beep.

Waymo is ‘driverless’ cars right? It’d only make sense that the thing is personless from end to end. So I’m curious how they plug in what appears to be over 100 I-pace Jags plus all the extra computer etc that draws on an already short ish range battery. Tesla’s charger snake hasn’t been seems since it was first talked about as far as I know but the I-pace has the MME front fender port.
From above Wonder if it travels as far? That is the problem with the original beep everyone knows for a 10 mile radius.

The logistics of how they worked out charging a fleet of them would be interesting. 150 mile range (big van?) they are going to need charging.
