Electric-vehicle startup Rivian unlocked another $1 billion from the Volkswagen Group. It achieved its second quarter in a row of positive gross profits in Q1. Rivian and Volkswagen announced a partnership last year that trades the startup's software and electrical expertise for over $5 billion in capital.
