Rivian lost about $38,784 on every vehicle it delivered in the first quarter of 2024 .
The automaker won't have the new, cheaper R2 SUV on the road until the first half of 2026 .
Rivian has changed 600 parts on its R1S SUV and R1 T pickup truck in a bid to drive down manufacturing costs, while improving performance of its flagship vehicles.
Second -generation Rivian R1 line does not offer smartphone projection features of Apple CarPlay or Android Auto .
Instead, Rivian is working with Google and Apple to integrate products that customers want most: music, maps and messaging.
The company has also developed its own middleware software, which communicates with the real-time ECUs, the infotainment system and the cloud.
