[Danno13]

Yes, Rivian and SEA Electric have both secured contracts with MEVCO in Australia:

1. Rivian:

   • Australian miners will soon receive deliveries of Rivian R1T electric utes as part of a global partnership between Rivian and Mining Electric Vehicle Company (MEVCO).
   • The deal includes a fleet of mine-spec Rivian R1T electric 4×4 dual-cab pick-ups, which are already on their way to Australia.
   • Although the exact number of R1Ts that MEVCO plans to sell in Australia hasn’t been confirmed, the global deal is said to be worth “hundreds of Rivians.”
   • These modified R1Ts are powered by a huge 135 kWh battery, producing 392 kW and 827 Nm of torque, with a range of up to 656 km on a single charge.
   • MEVCO has customized the R1Ts for mine work, adding features like a bespoke roo bar, rollover sport bar, steel wire-reinforced rear bulkhead, fire-suppression gear, and built-in slide trays in the Gear Tunnel between the bed and cab1.

2. SEA Electric:

   • SEA Electric, a commercial electric vehicle supplier, and MEVCO have partnered to convert 8,500 Toyota off-road vehicles to electric drives in Australia.
   • This cooperation is worth nearly $1 billion AUD (approximately 648 million euros).
   • The converted vehicles include specialist all-electric Hilux and Landcruiser models for the mining industry234.

In summary, both Rivian and SEA Electric are contributing to the electrification of Australia’s commercial vehicle fleet through their contracts with MEVCO. Rivian’s R1T electric utes and SEA Electric’s converted Toyota vehicles will play a significant role in sustainable transportation for mining operations in the country5.
