Rivian Spaces Offer Place To Explore Its Electric Adventure Vehicles

Rivian has debuted what it calls a Space retail and experience center in Manhattan’s trendy Meatpacking District.
The 5,000-sq. ft. location, Rivian’s first on the East Coast and only its second after a late 2021 opening in Venice Beach, CA, showcases not only its flagship R1T and R1S electric vehicles, available for test drives, as well as a collection of exclusive merchandise. There’s also lounge and activity spaces for children designed to be what Rivian said are “family friendly” and to be used for meetups. It’s part of a strategy of making its locations a family destination.
Rivian plans to open more than 10 locations in the United States and one in Vancouver, Canada, this year.
