Rivian Breaks Into The E-Bike Game, GM’s Tech Glow-Up And HORSE Powertrain

This week on the Plugged-In Podcast, Patrick and Tim have lots of news: General Motors' big tech push at its GM Forward event, including Super Cruise where you don't have to watch the road, and Rivian's exciting new e-bike spinoff Also. Is Rivian about to deliver a reset on how e-mobility works? Tim tested one, and he loved it.Also on this episode: Patrick talks to Matias Giannini, the CEO of Horse Powertrain. It's a new engine joint venture from Renault and the Geely Group. Why is our podcast covering engines? Because these engines are designed to be better: cleaner, smaller, more efficient, and purpose-built for things like plug-in hybrids and extended-range EVs. They're pro-EV but believe that if gas engines have to stick around longer, they have to better—and they have some interesting stuff up their sleeves.
