On Tuesday, the pair announced the amount could rise to about $5.8 billion.

Rivian stock was up 3.8% in after hours trading at $11.10 a share.

Rivian stock closed at $10.58 in regular trading Tuesday, down more than 4%, while the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average were off 0.3% and 0.9%, respectively.

Through Tuesday trading, Rivian stock was down about 55% year to date. Slowing EV sales have weighed on investor sentiment within the sector.
