Flexible Futures: Toyota’s Bold Bet, Algae Farms, and Wind-Powered Freight
Drop me a text and let me know what you think of this episode! A familiar automotive nameplate gets a bold update. We start with Toyota’s plan to make the Corolla impossible to ignore: a low, wide, sporty design paired with a platform capable of supporting gasoline, hybrid, battery electric, or hydrogen powertrains. Instead of relying on a single future, Toyota is designing for many—shrinking engines without sacrificing power, improving aerodynamics, and using flexible manufacturing to cut le...

Drop me a text and let me know what you think of this episode! The headlines claim car buyers don’t want EVs, yet Mercedes just approved a fully electric CLA and a flexible platform to support hybrids and gas models as well. We explain why platform strategy—not hype—determines winners: amortized R&D, quicker model updates, and the ability to meet demand without risking the entire company on one powertrain. We also discuss pricing pressures, tariffs, and how software services and over-the-...

Drop me a text and let me know what you think of this episode! A phone manufacturer building your next “American” EV might seem crazy—until you see the plan.

The Buckle, the Blazer, and the Bird: This Week in TechMobility
Drop me a text and let me know what you think of this episode! A $200 belt buckle for your Ford F-150 key fob, police cruisers going electric, and oil prices refusing to sit still—this isn’t noise, it’s a map of how mobility really changes. We open with Ford’s limited-run “Truckle,” a handcrafted buckle that holds your key fob in plain sight. It’s clever and clearly a brand flex, but we question the practical trade-offs: is hands-free access worth the security risk of your keys sitting on you...

Drop me a text and let me know what you think of this episode! What if being “late” saved you billions—but cost you the future? We examine Stellantis’ decision to cancel the pure-electric Ram 1500 and explore the larger question behind it: whether pausing EV investments during a downturn preserves cash or erodes the expertise needed to succeed later. From GM’s Ultium investment to Nissan’s early lead with the Leaf—and how it slipped—we connect the dots on how timing, tooling, and relentless R...

A Camaro crossover, Plain Jane Corolla, Urban Forest, and Parking Smarter
Drop me a text and let me know what you think of this episode! Think the Camaro name can’t live on as an EV crossover? Let’s test that idea. We explore why legacy coupes struggle financially, how Ford’s Mach‑E shifted the market, and why GM’s Ultium platform—and Chevrolet's Blazer SS EV running gear—could make a performance-focused Camaro revival more than just a rumor. Instant torque, AWD grip, and fewer moving parts aren’t just buzzwords; they’re the economic and emotional reasons for a new...

Drop me a text and let me know what you think of this episode! Think the back seat is the safest spot in a crash? New IIHS testing challenges that idea, and we examine why rear-seat protection in many newer vehicles still lags behind that of the front. We highlight which models earned top marks, why small and midsize SUVs exceeded expectations, and why minivans—despite their family-friendly image—didn't make the cut.
