After reporting yesterday that @Waymo has begun “laying the groundwork” for autonomous rides in Chicago, I saw a bunch for myself on Division and Wells this afternoon. My full story on @ElectrekCo here: electrek.co/2026/02/25/way…

Rivian (RIVN) Q4 and full 2025 earnings report: Tremendous YoY growth led by software electrek.co/2026/02/12/riv… by @scooterdoll

“I was impressed at how comfortable I felt in the Lucid Gravity (and the Air models) compared to the benchmarks. Its control system is so immaculately tuned that it will reel back if you understeer or bail you out if you oversteer. It’s hard to explain in text, or even in video, but it’s key to making sure Gravity drivers not only feel in control at all times, but also gain a little confidence when there is some sliding.” Read more from @SCOOTERDOLL at @ElectrekCo about how Lucid vehicles deliver driving confidence in every condition. bit.ly/4bGfUv3

Wayyyyy up North with @LucidMotors today putting the Gravity and Air through some winter testing. Big surprise, Sapphire is INSANE on the snow and ice. More to come on @ElectrekCo soon.

Action!

@RivianUpdates No spoilers from us! 🤐

It’s almost time to reveal what lurks in the shadows...

That time of year when every route becomes the scenic route 🍁

@zubidorm @nytimes @TheAthletic The Harriet Bird shooting scene could be pretty scary for a kid. The black gown still Scares me! Haha. The rest is pretty PG though

@nytimes @TheAthletic The film is great but calling it 'not a kids' movie' feels like gatekeeping baseball nostalgia.

From @TheAthletic: “The Natural” is not a kids' movie, not like “Little Big League” or “The Sandlot.” The success of the film revived the genre. Much of its power came from Robert Redford's credibility as an athlete on screen. nyti.ms/47O6Mme

@itskyleconner I got a R1S standard in march and am still Loving it.

Here it is! I bought the cheapest Rivian R1S on sale to put my money where my mouth is I keep saying the Rivian options list gets very expensive, very quickly, and the standard car is all you need! Over the next few months we’ll find out if their base offering is more than acceptable for most drivers. Looking forward to this! Enjoy the delivery experience below ⬇️

I can't believe this. @SCOOTERDOLL said in Electrek's newsroom that this 1900 electric car simulated a horse trotting sound, like some EVs today simulate engine sounds. I thought he was trolling, but it's apparently true.

@Jon4Lakers And R2 hasn’t even officially Arrived yet. Exciting times for sure.

@SCOOTERDOLL Rivian is REALLY coming into their own.

@SCOOTERDOLL Appreciate the shoutout today. Here are a few more.... x.com/Jon4Lakers/sta…

@klwtts @Hyundai Hyundai is a top 3 EV brand for me yet I wholeheartedly agree. This is their first miss I’ve seen in a long time.

I’m sorry @Hyundai but the IONIQ9 looks like a futuristic hearse. I can’t imagine this thing will sell well.
