Better EV Stock: Rivian vs. Tesla
Electric vehicles have evolved from niche hobbyist projects to a fiercely competitive arena dominated by legacy automakers and EV-focused startups. Rivian, with its focus on electric trucks, aims to carve a niche in Tesla's shadow. But does it offer a better investment opportunity than the industry pioneer?

The company has built a globally recognized brand, achieved consistent profitability, and diversified into adjacent technologies like robotics and energy storage. Yet its identity as a pure-play EV stock has blurred—and CEO Elon Musk's polarizing persona adds volatility to the equation.
