RIVN --

Volkswagen AG on Tuesday added $800 million to its investment plan to jointly develop battery-powered vehicles with Rivian Inc. (RIVN.US), which the German carmaker said in June it expected to invest $5 billion in. The companies also named leaders for their $2 billion-plus joint venture and showed off a prototype electric vehicle and commitment despite a weak global demand for EVs and a Trump administration threatening to cut support policies.

$RIVN With a substantial investment of $5.8 billion, Rivian R2 aims to deliver 200,000 vehicles by 2026. It remains to be seen what the stock prices will be.

$RIVN Some folks claimed VW was bankrupt and unable to cough up cash for Rivian...well, those baseless rumors have vanished. Kudos to Rivian's supporters and longs; you've defeated the shorts once more.

Adding another $800 million brings the total investment to $5.8 billion... I hope they have a solid exit strategy in place. Fingers crossed for Rivian's future

Nice to see the prototype electric vehicle, but how long will it be before we see it on the market and at what price point?

Why is the Trump administration threatening to cut support policies for EVs? Doesn't they see the innovation happening here?

More money thrown at a losing game? Global demand for EVs is weak, what makes VW think this is a good time to double down?
