President Trump has announced a doubling of tariffs on imported steel from 25% to 50% to protect domestic jobs and strengthen the industry. This move follows a previous tariff announcement and aims to ensure America's future is built with U.S.-produced steel rather than "shoddy steel from Shanghai". You can read more about the tariff increase here. We also discuss the ongoing labor dispute involving Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW). Canada Post has requested government intervention to hold a vote among unionized employees on its latest contract offer, highlighting the impasse in negotiations over wages and structural changes. The situation is a continuation of a conflict that included a nearly five-week strike last year. For more details on the Canada Post situation, see the article here. Additionally, we highlight executive changes and potential IPO plans at the autonomous freight technology company Einride. Founder Robert Falck is transitioning from CEO to executive chairman, while CFO Roozbeh Charll is taking over the CEO role with an eye toward a potential IPO in the U.S.. This leadership pivot is intended to capitalize on a favorable regulatory environment for autonomous vehicles and support future expansion and investment opportunities. Learn more about the changes at Einride by reading the article here. The episode also announced upcoming FreightWaves virtual events: the Enterprise Fleet Summit on July 23rd and the Supply Chain AI Symposium on July 30th in Washington D.C..

Im Gespräch mit Robert Ziegler, dem General Manager EMEA von Einride, habe ich spannende Einblicke in die Entwicklungen und Herausforderungen im Bereich des nachhaltigen Transports erhalten. Einride ist kein klassischer Lkw-Hersteller, sondern ein sogenannter „Electric Logistics Service Provider“ – ein Dienstleister, der auf nachhaltigen Transport und innovative Lösungen setzt. Robert hat dabei verdeutlicht, dass Einride nicht nur elektrische Lkws von Herstellern wie Daimler oder Scania kauft, sondern ein gesamtes Ökosystem aufbaut, das alle Aspekte von Hardware über Ladeinfrastruktur bis hin zur Softwareintegration umfasst. Ein zentrales Thema war die hohe Zuverlässigkeit der digitalen Lösungen von Einride, die es dem Unternehmen ermöglichen, operative Abläufe nahezu fehlerfrei zu gestalten. Wie Robert erklärte: „Wir sind seit über vier Jahren operativ mit über 99,5 Prozent pünktlicher und vollständiger Lieferung unterwegs.“ Diese hohe Effizienz resultiert aus der digitalen Vernetzung der Lkws und ihrer Ladeinfrastruktur, was nicht nur die Qualität des Transports steigert, sondern auch die Kosten langfristig senkt. Robert erläuterte, dass die Betriebskosten von Elektro-Lkws, je nach Land, bis zu 80 Prozent günstiger sind als die von Diesel-Lkws, auch wenn die Anschaffungskosten zunächst höher ausfallen. „In Deutschland liegen die Betriebskosten von Elektro-Lkws etwa 45 bis 50 Prozent unter denen von Diesel-Lkws. Auch wenn die Anschaffungskosten höher sind, machen die geringeren laufenden Kosten den Unterschied über die Vertragslaufzeit wett.“ Einride arbeitet vor allem mit großen Supermarktketten wie Lidl, Rewe und Kaufland zusammen und deckt dabei die gesamte Lieferkette von Konsumgütern ab. Interessant ist auch, dass das Unternehmen keine klassischen Kaufverträge mit Kunden abschließt, sondern über fünfjährige Logistikverträge verfügt, bei denen Einride die Eigentümerschaft und das Risiko der Lkws trägt. Dies ermöglicht es den Kunden, von der neuesten Technologie zu profitieren, ohne selbst das Investitionsrisiko zu tragen. Ein weiteres spannendes Thema war die zunehmende Digitalisierung und Automatisierung im Transportbereich. Robert betonte, dass die Fahrer von Elektro-Lkws zwar immer noch eine wichtige Rolle spielen, aber viele Entscheidungen bereits von der digitalen Plattform getroffen werden. Dies führt nicht nur zu effizienteren Abläufen, sondern auch zu einem attraktiveren Arbeitsumfeld für die Fahrer:innen: „Ein Elektro-Lkw fährt so mit knapp über 20 Dezibel durch die Gegend, während Diesel über 80 ist. Und den Unterschied merkt man massiv.“ Diese Veränderungen machen den Job nicht nur angenehmer, sondern ziehen auch mehr Fahrerinnen an, was angesichts des Fachkräftemangels ein bedeutender Vorteil ist. Zum Ende des Gesprächs ging es noch um die Zukunft des autonomen Fahrens und die Notwendigkeit von Megawatt-Chargern. Einride sieht diese Technologie als wichtigen Schritt, betont aber, dass sie im Moment bisher nicht flächendeckend notwendig ist. Der Fokus liegt auf der weiteren Optimierung der bestehenden Ladeinfrastruktur und der kontinuierlichen Verbesserung der Transportlösungen. Nun aber genug der Vorrede – lasst uns direkt in das Gespräch einsteigen!

We're closing out a beautiful 31 day month as we talk about VW's plans to NOT enter the EV pricing war. We also cover an impressive EV trucking network, as well as a one sentence warning from people who typically talk a lot. Amidst growing pressure from emerging Chinese manufacturers, Volkswagen's COO, Ralf Brandstaetter, has announced the company's refusal to partake in China's discount battles, emphasizing sustainable profitability over market share. "Our market position is strong enough. For us, the focus is on profitability, not sales volume or market share," said BrandstaetterVW has been the sales leader in China for years until Chinese manufacturer BYD outsold them this year“Volkswagen aspires to be the biggest international carmaker in China, he said, adding that it's irrelevant if another national manufacturer sells more than it does."If we achieve sales of more than 4 million vehicles in this environment in 2030, with corresponding profitability, that is a position we could very well live with," he said.Autonomous EV freight company Einride is set to revolutionize the United Arab Emirates' freight landscape, partnering with the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure to deploy a comprehensive electric, autonomous freight network.

The warning includes high-profile signatories by industry giants such as Sam Altman of OpenAI, Demis Hassabis of Google DeepMind, and Dario Amodei of Anthropic, among others.Despite its wide support, some significant players like Meta have not signed the statement.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

News: Cabless autonomous electric truck approved for US public roads | New Atlas (01:35) Freight technology company Einride first introduced its cabless autonomous electric T-pod truck back in 2017.Couple years later in 2020, it started rolling along Swedish Roads Now the company has been given the green light for operation on public roads in the US. In what Einride claims is a first, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has approved its purpose-built autonomous electric vehicle to operate on public roads in the US, and there'll be no driver in the cab as the Einride Pod doesn't have a cab. The T-pod Truck makes use of an onboard sensor suite:cameras, radars and LiDARs  will be monitored remotely by a human operator If you are curious about the sizing:Each vehicle should measure about 7 meters (23 ft) in length, and be capable of carrying 15 standard pallets worth of cargo.  It will weigh 20 tons with a full load, covering a distance of approximately 200 km (124 miles) on one charge of its 200-kWh battery pack. The public road pilot is due to start in Q3 of this year, where the vehicle will merge with existing fleet operations at a GE Appliances manufacturing facility.Expected to move goods between warehouses and operate on public roads in mixed traffic.   Enzyme reverses muscle loss due to aging and cancer | The Bright Side News (05:25) An international team led by uOttawa Faculty of Medicine researchers have published findings that could contribute to future therapeutics for muscle degeneration due to old age, and diseases such as cancer and muscular dystrophy. Their work demonstrates the importance of the enzyme GCN5 in maintaining the expression of key structural proteins in skeletal muscle.Those are the muscles attached to bone that breathing, posture and locomotion all rely on. GCN5: a well-studied enzyme which regulates multiple cellular processes such as metabolism and inflammation.  Over the span of roughly five years, the uOttawa-led international collaboration painstakingly experimented with a muscle-specific mouse “knockout” of GCN5. In this case, multiple experiments were done to examine the role the GCN5 enzyme plays in muscle fiber.  What they found:A notable decline in muscle health during physical stress, such as downhill treadmill running, a type of exercise known by athletes to cause micro-tears in muscle fibers to stimulate muscle growth.  The affected mice became dramatically weaker as they scurried downhill, like those of old mice, while wild-type mice were not similarly impacted. Dr. Menzies, the senior author of the study, says the findings are akin to what is observed in advanced aging, or myopathies and muscular dystrophy, a group of genetic diseases that result in progressive weakness and loss of muscle mass. Ultimately, the team's research found that GCN5 boosts the expression of key structural muscle proteins, notably dystrophin, and a lack of it will reduce them.This is significant because dystrophin is the body's most important protein for maintaining the membrane of muscle cells, serving as a kind of anchor and cushioning shock absorber in cells of muscles.  Dr. Menzies suggests the research could help to create a foundation for developing therapeutics down the line: “These findings may therefore be useful for the discovery of new therapeutics that regulate GCN5 activity, or its downstream targets, for maintaining healthy muscle during cancer, myopathies, muscular dystrophy or aging,” Scientists develop first-of-its-kind implant that relieves pain without drugs | Interesting Engineering (11:13) Researchers at Northwestern University have developed a device that sounds straight out of science fiction: a small, soft, flexible first-of-its-kind implant that relieves pain on demand, without the use of drugs and dissolves.Could provide a much-needed alternative to opioids and other highly addictive medications. As per the researchers, the device could be highly valuable for patients who undergo routine surgeries or amputations that most often need post-operative medications. Northwestern's John A. Rogers, who led the device's development, in a press release stated:“As engineers, we are motivated by the idea of treating pain without drugs — in ways that can be turned on and off instantly, with user control over the intensity of relief. The technology reported here exploits mechanisms that have some similarities to those that cause your fingers to feel numb when cold. Our implant allows that effect to be produced in a programmable way, directly and locally to targeted nerves, even those deep within surrounding soft tissues.” The device works by wrapping around nerves softly, to deliver precise and targeted cooling.This in turn numbs nerves and blocks pain signals to the brain.  An external pump helps the user to remotely activate the device and control its intensity. Once the device is no longer required, it is naturally absorbed into the body — "bypassing the need for surgical extraction". Why does coolness help with pain?Study co-author Dr. Matthew MacEwan of Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis said that as nerves become cooler, the signals that travel through them become slower - eventually stopping completely.  “By delivering a cooling effect to just one or two targeted nerves, we can effectively modulate pain signals in one specific region of the body," The device contains tiny microfluidic channels to induce the cooling effect, while concurrently, a tiny integrated sensor monitors the temperature of the nerve to ensure that it doesn't get too cold, which could damage the tissue. Rodgers talks on the monitoring:"By monitoring the temperature at the nerve, the flow rates can be adjusted automatically to set a point that blocks pain in a reversible, safe manner. On-going work seeks to define the full set of time and temperature thresholds below which the process remains fully reversible." At the thickness of a sheet of paper, the soft, elastic nerve cooling device is ideal for treating highly sensitive nerves.   Scientists Say New James Webb Images Are So Powerful That It Was Emotional Just Looking at Them | Futurism (18:25) While we await the ceremonial release of the first official images taken by NASA's uber-expensive James Webb Space Telescope, early reactions to the long-awaited shots are already sounding pretty promising. NASA's scientific missions lead Thomas Zurbuchen told reporters on Wednesday:“The images are being taken right now… There is already some amazing science in the can, and some others are yet to be taken as we go forward. We are in the middle of getting the history-making data down." NASA plans to release several images on July 12, the inaugural "first light" observations from the space telescope and a potentially groundbreaking moment for the field of astronomy. Zurbuchen admitted he was in his feelings over the new images:“It's really hard to not look at the universe in a new light and not just have a moment that is deeply personal … It's an emotional moment when you see nature suddenly releasing some of its secrets. and I would like you to imagine and look forward to that." The images are expected to include unprecedented views of the depths of the universe and the atmosphere surrounding a distant exoplanet, potentially giving us glimpses of a habitable world other than our own. It's the culmination of over a decade of research, and a $10 billion investment that could soon pay off in a big way.   Elon Musk's Starlink gets FCC green light to beam broadband into moving cars, planes, boats | Business Insider (21:56) SpaceX won approval from the Federal Communications Commission to let its Starlink satellites send broadband internet to moving vehicles on Thursday.Cleared a major hurdle as it has already signed deals with airline carriers including Hawaiian Airlines and exclusive jet firm JSX to provide in-flight WiFi to passengers. "Authorizing a new class of terminals for SpaceX's satellite system will expand the range of broadband capabilities to meet the growing user demands that now require connectivity while on the move, whether driving an RV across the country, moving a freighter from Europe to a US port, or while on a domestic or international flight," the FCC said in its authorization order published Thursday. The FCC's authorization will allow Starlink to pursue deals with transport companies more vigorously.Royal Caribbean became the first cruise line to request Starlink on its ships in June. Starlink also launched a $135 monthly subscription for RVs in May. At launch the company said the internet service could not be used while the RV was in motion.

Show #1477 Well…Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily, your trusted source of EV information. It's Tuesday 24th May, and Martyn is off on his holidays for the week. I'm Blake Boland, and I've gone through every EV story today so that you don't have to! The “Stealth Bomber” Drops A Bomb: Foxconn-Fisker Vehicle Confirmed - Author of article, Jennifer Sensiba - ‘In a previous series of articles, I explained that Taiwan-based Foxconn (aka Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.) is going to be a serious player in the EV industry, but that you probably won't hear much about it. Why? Because it is going to be the “stealth bomber” of manufacturers.' - A few days ago, Fisker announced solid plans to build the PEAR, and it is working with Foxconn to build it in Ohio. This is supposed to happen in 2024, and the starting price is supposed to be below $29,900. - Whatever the PEAR is going to actually be, Fisker and Foxconn tell us that they expect to sell a whole bunch of them. After a ramp-up period, they want to make at least 250,000 units per year, and that they have high hopes to make many more.   Original Source : The "Stealth Bomber" Drops A Bomb: Foxconn-Fisker Vehicle Confirmed - CleanTechnica Tesla Giga Shanghai output will return to pre-lockdown levels by Tuesday -An internal memo sent to Tesla employees said the automaker plans to have production levels at its Gigafactory Shanghai production facility return to pre-lockdown levels by Tuesday. The plant faced a three-week hiatus in production in April after a surge of COVID-19 cases in the city caused government officials to determine a shutdown was appropriate. - Tesla's daily output will return to 2,600 on Tuesday, according to the memo, which was seen by Reuters. The document said there were around 1,000 electric units produced on Monday, and the weekly output would move closer to 16,000 cars every seven days. - Additionally, this has made a substantial impact on workforces in the area. Tesla, along with other companies in the Shanghai region, has been short on workers, as well as restricted with parts due to supply chain issues in scaled back production due to the shutdowns. Original Source : Tesla Giga Shanghai output will return to pre-lockdown levels by Tuesday (teslarati.com) Tesla Giga Shanghai May Remain In Closed-Loop System Until Mid-June - Tesla's Giga Shanghai factory will reportedly continue operating in a closed-loop system until mid-June, people familiar with the matter who wished to remain anonymous told Bloomberg. - Company reportedly wants to move workers into dormitories and keep them in a form of closed loop until June 13. - With two shifts running 24 hours a day, Tesla's Shanghai factory may be able to return to the pre-lockdown daily production of around 2,100 vehicles a day. Currently, the facility is running at about 45% of capacity and auto parts suppliers are also at around that level, a local government official said at a briefing last week. This contradicts a statement from another local government official who said in early May that Giga Shanghai production was back at over 80% of capacity.

He drove through the United States in a Volkswagen ID.4. On May 18, 2022, Zietlow and his Challenge4 team set another record.  - The world-record driver drove up the dormant Uturuncu volcano in Bolivia, reaching 5,816 meters in altitude. On May 23, 2022, Zietlow and his team were awarded an official Guinness World Records certificate for the highest altitude achieved in an electric vehicle in La Paz, Bolivia.  Original Source : Volkswagen ID.4 GTX with LGES batteries sets Guinness World Record for EVs (teslarati.com) BMW and Mini could move to 'agency' sales model in Europe, sales chief says - "We are currently talking with our European dealers about a move to a genuine agency model," Nota told Automotive News Europe on the sidelines of the Villa d'Este Concours here. - Autohaus magazine had reported in March that BMW planned to end its authorized dealer system in Europe from 2024 for Mini and from 2026 for the core BMW brand and instead rely on agency sales for new cars. - Premium automakers in Europe generally offer dealer margins of 12 to 16 percent, with amounts varying according to the product line and the market. In the agency model, sales commissions are expected to be roughly halved, to a mid-single digit, but dealers will not incur inventory and promotional costs.
