I think we can expect your closing point, investment and orders from Amazon, to be the most important factor for Rivian in 2020 and beyond. The R1T and R1S are obviously the most exciting aspects of the company, but they will be niche products in the grand scheme of things. Amazon moves quickly and has grand plans to quickly establish its own logistics empire. Bezos is ruthless when it comes to cutting costs and electrifying the company's final-mile delivery fleet at scale will be a priority, IMO. Being so firmly invested in Rivian will only help that effort, with the result that Scaringe and co. will have plenty of time/money to establish a vehicle brand of their own and, hopefully, begin to introduce more affordable EV models as the decade progresses.
