EV maker Rivian has officially acquired the route-planning app, Iternio, in a strategic move to outfit its electric vehicles with more advanced navigation tech and leverage that data to help expand its charging network.
This merge follows reports that Rivian also plans to adopt Tesla's charging standard and develop its own fast-charging network, providing customers access to the largest U.S. charging network and generating a good chunk of change from Tesla users too.
Opel
✍️🚗🤘
Opel has embraced the challenge of bringing to life the independently created concept car by design student Lukas Wenzhöfer called the Rocks e-Xtreme.
Wenzhöfer introduced this lil’ guy online just one week after the debut of Opel’s quadricycle in September 2021, and Opel held true to their promise of building a real-life model and getting all the craziness of the original renderings spot-on.
