    My wife was thinking between the Rivian s3 and the Fisker as our next vehicle.

    This makes me sad to hear.

      Rivian has been doing layoffs at their BloNo plant recently. I’m not sure if it’s just like everyone else in the tech sector or if demand is down.

        Demand is down because these vehicles are pushing $100k and interest rates on car loans are 7-8%. They did recently announce some new, cheaper models in the near future so it may turn around for them.
