Rivian
2025 R1S DMPL
Pretty interesting. When I was underneath the Rivian today looking at the suspension, I noticed many of the suspension components (CV Axles, Tie Rods, Lower Control Arms, Lower Arm Pivots, etc..) are tagged and labeled with the country of Origin. I know it's normal for manufacturers to source parts from all over the world, I've just never seen so many tags and labels on parts before.

Interesting... Is there a percentage breakdown for these overall? And where is it technically "made"?
