For early development and preparations, refer to the following thread:

NASA selects SpaceX Starship system to land on moon - Discussion of Preparations

Looks like SpaceX beat out the competition, including Blue Origin. While I say Starship, I think it’ll be modified somewhat for NASA. https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/as-artemis-moves-forward-nasa-picks-spacex-to-land-next-americans-on-moon

From NASA, here's a still of a cargo HLS delivering a rover to the surface of the Moon. There's also a still for the Blue Origin lander delivering the same rover, which I haven't included. Though three rovers are shown, I assume it's just three stages of the same rover being delivered and driving off.
