Rivian just cut 1.5% of its workforce, mainly from its commercial team, as the company gears up for its new, cheaper R2 SUV (expected to start at $45K in 2026). The real kicker? The $7,500 EV tax credit is ending way sooner than planned—now set to expire Sept. 30. With other automakers like GM also making cuts, it’s clear the shifting rules are shaking up the whole EV world. Would you still go electric without those sweet tax breaks? #Cars #Rivian #EVs
