Why Vertical Integration Could Define the Future of EVs – Will Graylin on Smart Wheels, Fleets & System Thinking

Electrifying transport isn’t as simple as swapping engines for batteries. It’s about vehicles, charging, service, and the economics to make it work.

In this episode, I sit down with Will Graylin, CEO of IndiGO Technologies, to talk about how his company is taking on this challenge with vertically integrated EV solutions built for ride-hail, delivery fleets, and commercial transport.

We dive into why IndiGO’s MIT-born “smart wheel” tech changes vehicle design, the importance of owning the charging infrastructure, and why Will believes this transition rivals the shift from horse-drawn carriages to cars over a century ago.
