Listen "TWC Podcast #145: Canoo’s Doka"
Episode Synopsis
Canoo unveiled its EV pickup — again! Supposedly called the American Bulldog, we think it looks more like a VW Doka…and that’s not a slam. But before we get to that topic on this week’s podcast, we discuss how the UAW strike might be far from over, the future of the Ram TRX, Lucid’s foray into electric pickups, strange bedfellows for Mercedes, and more!Subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Audible, Spotify, Stitcher, PocketCasts, iHeartRadio, and more – or use your favorite podcast application.SHOW NOTESUAW drama isn’t over: https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/fords-production-workers-kentucky-louisville-vote-against-new-labor-deal-2023-11-13/ https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/uaw-workers-gms-flint-assembly-narrowly-vote-against-new-labor-deal-2023-11-10/ Could the next Ram TRX be a Hybrid? https://www.thewattcar.com/home/prediction-ram-1500-trx-will-return-as-a-hybrid Canoo releases American Bulldog commercial: https://youtu.be/qarjJIsXY_g?si=n2QtYT-B8uY4FA0p Lucid might be considering a pickup: https://insideevs.com/news/696058/lucid-pickup-truck-clay-model/ Lucid announces RangeXchange vehicle-to-vehicle charging feature: https://electrek.co/2023/11/09/lucid-motors-lcid-rangexchange-vehicle-to-vehicle-charging-capabilities-ev/ Mercedes-Benz partners with Buc-ee’s: https://insideevs.com/news/695838/mercedes-charging-hubs-bucee-travel-centers/ Rivian OTA bricks infotainment systems: https://electrek.co/2023/11/14/rivian-software-update-bricks-infotainment-system-fix-not-obvious/ Tesla Cybertruck has an unexpected admirer, Giorgetto Giugiaro: https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-cybertruck-nod-of-approval-from-delorean-dmc-12-designer/ This week’s hosts: Phil Royle and Edward A.
