Tesla delivers about 70,000 of these vehicles per year, according to Munster. Rivian is expected to deliver about 1,000 vehicles this year, but if one assumes the company is able to deliver 70,000 vehicles in 2023, "that means that the valuation per vehicle delivery in 2023 is $1.3 million," he said. ![]()

"So when I think about Tesla and think about the long term, my opinion is this can be a $2,500 stock." Munster said he sees an important difference between Tesla and Rivian: Tesla didn't increase its growth rate to 50% until it started selling lower priced vehicles. ![]()
