This week, we sit down for a fascinating conversation with Rivian founder and CEO RJ Scaringe. RJ takes us back to the startup's origins in 2009 and talks about what he’s working on next, like the R2, R3, R4 and R5.

He breaks down how AI is revolutionizing self-driving technology and explains where he sees battery tech going next. We chat about the looming threat of Chinese EVs, why America needs more great electric cars that aren't Teslas and how policy shifts will reshape the U.S. EV landscape for years to come.
