- Above 46000 — the market puts it at 92%, closing 31 Mar 2028. The market resolves to Yes if Rivian delivers more than 46,000 total vehicles in 2026. It resolves to No if the company delivers 46,000 or fewer vehicles that year. Readers often mistake the deadline for the end of the calendar year rather than the specific delivery count threshold.
- Above 25000 — the market puts it at 66%, closing 27 Aug 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Rivian delivers more than 25,000 total vehicles during the first quarter of 2027. It resolves to No if the company delivers 25,000 or fewer vehicles in that same period. Readers often mistake the linked Q3 revenue news for the relevant data, but only Q1 2027 delivery figures count.
