Your Business Can Now Own the Same Electric Vans Amazon Uses

Rivian has officially opened up orders for their commercial vans to businesses of all sizes, meaning whether you run a single-van operation or manage a full-scale fleet, you can finally get your hands on one. If your business relies on transporting goods, making deliveries, or running service calls, this could be a game-changing opportunity to lower costs, reduce maintenance headaches, and future-proof your operations.

For four years, Rivian’s electric vans—now called the Rivian Commercial Van (RCV)—were locked into an exclusive deal with Amazon. That agreement ended in 2023, but even then, only large corporate fleets could buy them. Now, they’re removing the minimum order requirement, making these EVs available to any registered business.

Here’s why that matters:

• No more fuel costs: These vans run entirely on electricity, cutting out fluctuating fuel expenses
• Lower maintenance needs: Fewer moving parts mean less downtime and lower upkeep costs
• Optimized for urban and regional routes: With up to 161 miles of range, these vans are ideal for local deliveries, service businesses, and logistics companies
• Built for business efficiency: They come equipped with keyless entry, multiple cameras, and built-in fleet analytics to make operations smoother and safer

Rivian’s vans also qualify for the $7,500 federal EV tax credit, which can significantly reduce upfront costs.

Rivian offers two sizes:

• RCV 500: Smaller footprint, 487 cubic feet of storage, 2,663 lb payload
• RCV 700: More space, 652 cubic feet of storage, 2,258 lb payload

Both models feature front-wheel drive, a 100 kWh battery, and DC fast charging up to 100 kW, so you can quickly recharge and return to the road.

For businesses that rely on transportation and delivery, switching to electric isn’t just about sustainability—it’s about cutting long-term costs and staying competitive. Ford and Mercedes-Benz have already moved into the EV van space, but Rivian’s vans have a major advantage: real-world testing.

Amazon has used these vans in high-demand conditions for years, proving they can handle heavy daily use, tight delivery schedules, and constant stop-and-go driving. They’re not experimental—they’re already proven.

Rivian’s order portal is live now, with pricing starting at $82,900 for the RCV 500 and $86,900 for the RCV 700. If you’ve been considering an EV fleet, this is one of the most reliable, real-world-tested options available today.
