Show Notes

Patrick and Tim kick things off by discussing Rivian's entry into the micromobility space through a new spinoff called Also, which will make small electric vehicles like e-bikes. Then they talk about the opening of Hyundai's gigantic new plant in Georgia, breaking down why its timing couldn't have been better. In the back half of the show, they're joined by Andrew Cornelia, CEO of Mercedes-Benz High-Power Charging. They discuss what's wrong with EV charging today and how to fix it—plus big charging news out of China's BYD.

During Plus/Minus, the guys explain why Trump's new 25% tariffs will be devastating for car prices and hammer small players like Mazda.
