Episode notes

Rivian has taken that testla quality f of surprise and delight. I think it's great, like just having ou ma s o m one dial. What i don't love about the mustang maqui is that what a lot of companies have done. They're like, it's an e v, so we're goin to put this dial to change the gear selection. It just, i'm just not a big believer in that.

The gang is getting back out from behind their computer screens, bringing back tales of test drives and conferences for the latest discussion episode. Kirsten has been the busiest of the bunch, as her first drives of the hot new EVs from RIvian and Lucid (and a factory tour of the latter startup) prompt discussion of their execution and manufacturing. Ed's also just back from Micromobility America, where he notes on some of the changes in that scene, and Alex would tell you what he's been up to but then he'd have to kill you.
