Rivian to build $9.5 million vehicle services and sales center in Round Rock

January 22, 2026

Rivian Automotive Inc. will build a vehicle services and sales center in Round Rock, investing $9.5 million in the project. The company, known for making electric pickup trucks and SUVs, is increasing its operational footprint in the Austin area with this new site.

Work on the Round Rock facility is scheduled to finish in March 2027. Rivian set that completion target as part of its plan to expand local customer support and sales operations over the coming years.

The site will combine vehicle servicing with sales activities, providing one location for Rivian owners to get maintenance and for prospective buyers to see and purchase vehicles. Company officials said the center will help meet demand for after-sales service and make the brand more accessible to central Texas customers.

Rivian has been growing its presence around major metropolitan areas as electric vehicle ownership rises, and the Round Rock location follows earlier moves in the broader Austin region. The company continues to add service and retail sites to support an expanding customer base.

Local officials and community leaders have expressed interest in new commercial investments that bring more services to the area, and Rivian's project adds to development momentum in Round Rock. The facility will join other automotive and retail activity that supports regional transportation and consumer services.

Construction and final opening will proceed under local permitting and development rules, with timelines subject to change as the project advances through design and building stages. Rivian will provide updates as work progresses and as it confirms staffing and operational details for the Round Rock center.
