With a cargo capacity of 500 cubic feet, Rivian’s Electric Delivery Vehicle (EDV) – which is called Rivian Service Van – is much better suited for the job than the R1T pickup the company has been using so far for light service jobs in the field.
“Each van is fit with a wheel balancer, automatic tire changer, air compressor, hydraulic jack and stands, and modular shelving with the parts and tools to complete 80 percent of all labor codes,” Rivian said in a press release announcing the deployment. “Each van also has a dedicated 240v outlet to provide vehicle-to-vehicle charging.”
