Rivian is approaching 1,000 charging stalls across its proprietary Adventure Network, a milestone the EV maker is expected to reach this summer after a slowdown in new installations during the first quarter of 2026.
The rollout of both new chargers and new sites decelerated in the first quarter of 2026, continuing a pattern of weaker Q1 deployment seen the previous year as well.
According to the company’s website, Rivian owners have access to about 227,000 chargers in North America, with about 50,000 DC fast chargers compatible with Rivian vehicles.
The network includes “over 21,500 Tesla Superchargers,” alongside access to charging stations from companies such as IONNA and Electrify America.
Rivian‘s own Adventure Network accounts for roughly 0.4% of that total.
Latest Update
Last February, the company founded and led by RJ Scaringe provided its latest update on the Rivian Adventure Network, in its fourth-quarter shareholder letter.
As of the end of 2025, the network had “over 930 chargers across over 140 sites.”
Rivian said “reliability remains a key area of focus,” reporting an average uptime of 98% across its chargers in 2025 — a metric it highlighted as a differentiator in a market where charger reliability remains a persistent consumer complaint.
The company also provided an update to the number of stations supporting all types of electric vehicles — which was at over 90% then — as it aims to open its entire charging network to non-Rivian vehicles.
“In December, as many families took holiday travel adventures, non-Rivian vehicles accounted for more than 40% of charging sessions at RAN chargers,” the EV maker wrote.
The Rivian Adventure Network offers both CCS (Combined Charging System) and NACS (North American Charging Standard) chargers.
NACS Integration
Rivian began upgrading its charging network last year by replacing some CCS plugs with NACS connectors, after announcing the switch in early 2024.
The company sent a free adapter to all existing owners to ensure continued access during the transition.
The shift to NACS broadens the network’s appeal beyond Rivian‘s own fleet and aligns with the industry-wide migration to the Tesla-originated connector standard.
Rivian has been rolling out NACS-compatible chargers across the network, allowing it to reach more customers outside of its R1 owners as it transitions its models to the connector.
The company plans to continue deploying more NACS chargers across 2026, “as we prepare for R2.”
Rivian‘s 2022-2025 model year R1 vehicles all have a CCS port, while models from 2026 onward will feature only NACS.
The same applies to the recently launched R2 SUV — for which customer deliveries will begin later in the spring.
Chargers Data
According to data provided by both the company and RivianRoamer, the Adventure Network has advanced consistently over the past three years.
Rivian began reporting specific figures for its charging network in the second quarter of 2023, when it said it had 273 chargers across 44 sites.
In the third quarter of 2023, the company only disclosed operating 57 stations — which indicates that it opened 13 stations in the space of a quarter.
Based on the year-end numbers of “over 400 chargers” across 67 sites, the company opened an average of 63 chargers in both the third and fourth quarters.
The company did not disclose charging updates in Q2 or Q3 2024.
Based on estimates, Rivian opened an average of 60 charging stalls per quarter and 7-8 stations, totalling 120 chargers and 15 sites across the six-month period.
Charging Deployment
As of Wednesday, RivianRoamer shows 963 chargers available across 144 RAN stations — with the latest location having opened on March 27.
Since early 2023, the company has opened roughly 10 locations per quarter, while adding around 60 to 80 chargers in most periods.
The notable exceptions are the first quarters of both 2025 and 2026, when only around 30 chargers were inaugurated — suggesting seasonal or resource-related constraints that slow the rollout at the start of each year.
According to RivianRoamer, 97% of the Adventure Network is currently open to non-Rivian vehicles, and approximately 11% of its sites now include NACS connectors.
As of Wednesday, 32 of the network’s 963 stations feature NACS ports.
Of these, 28 stations are equipped with both CCS and NACS chargers, suggesting either retrofits at existing CCS-only sites or new stations launched with dual compatibility.
Geographically, California leads in NACS-equipped infrastructure with 12 stations, followed by Texas with three.
Only four of the 32 stations are NACS-only, and all are located in California.
The most recent of these opened on October 28 in San Bernardino, equipped with nine chargers.
Earlier NACS-only sites include Crescent City, Ukiah, and Fortuna, each with six plugs.
However, the Ukiah station is currently reported as unavailable, according to the tracking data.
Locations
The Rivian charging network is primarily concentrated along the West Coast — where the company is headquartered in California — and the East Coast, which includes several major metropolitan areas.
Its main production facility is located in Normal, Illinois, while a future plant is planned for Georgia.
The company also established an East Coast headquarters in Atlanta last year.
The network also includes three Charging Outposts, which are amenity-based charging stations.
There are currently two in California — one in Joshua Tree and another in Yosemite — and a most recent one in Southampton, New York.
According to Rivian’s charging map, there are currently no Adventure Network stations in Canada, despite the company having a presence in the country.
However, Canadian Rivian owners can still use chargers operated by partner networks.
The company has 20 upcoming locations planned, including seven in California, three in Utah, and two each in Colorado and Washington.
One of them will be located in Bellingham, close to the Canadian border.
Service
Rivian is also expanding its service network ahead of R2 deliveries, as the EV maker prepares to enter a lower price segment that could significantly expand its addressable market.
The company reported operating 97 service locations — just shy of the 100 it had targeted by the end of 2025 — alongside 36 showrooms and nearly 700 mobile service vehicles.
In its February Shareholder Letter, Rivian said it was “scaling our commercial and service infrastructure as well as driving brand awareness in preparation for customer deliveries of R2 in the second quarter of 2026.”
