EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — Electric vehicle maker Rivian announced Thursday the opening of its Joshua Tree Charging Outpost.

The California company said it picked Joshua Tree to encourage more people “to drive electric on their next adventure.” Additionally, the charging location will allow non-Rivian electric vehicles to charge alongside the company’s R1T pickup and R1S SUV.

The Joshua Tree Charging Outpost is located at 61142 29 Palms Highway, Joshua Tree. It will be open Sunday through Saturday 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. with 24-hour restroom access (code in the Rivian app).

There will be 12 Rivian Adventure Network chargers, while other EV owners can pay through the Rivian app. While charging up, drivers will be able to enjoy complimentary cup from Joshua Tree Coffee Company, lounge in the hammock or cabanas. If traveling with kids, there is a play area and a climbing wall.

The Joshua Tree Charging Outpost will also feature a mini outdoor museum.

“To achieve widespread electrification, you also need a really good charging network. Now, we’re excited to bring the Rivian Adventure Network — with its ease of use and exceptional reliability — to other EV drivers around North America, investing in a future where charging on the road will be simple, sustainable, and convenient,” said Rivian Founder and CEO RJ Scaringe in a news release statement.

According to Rivian, the Joshua Tree chargers will deliver rapid charging up to 900 volts and feature CCS connectors with support for North American Charging Standard-equipped, or NACS vehicles with an automaker-approved adapter.

Just last month, President Joe Biden’s administration announced the U.S. Department of Energy would make a $6.6 billion loan to Rivian Automotive to build a factory in Georgia that had stalled as the startup electric vehicle maker struggled to become profitable.

This week, CNN reported that Vivek Ramaswamy, the incoming co-chair of President-elect Donald Trump’s commission to cut government, was looking to claw back once Trump’s second term gets going.

However, the Joshua Tree chargers, according to Rivian, meet the design and siting requirements to be eligible for relevant federal and state infrastructure funding, allowing Rivian to further expand its charging infrastructure.

Further, Rivian said it expects to open additional charging locations at sites in Texas, Colorado, Illinois, Montana, Pennsylvania, Michigan and New York.
