On our first-ever numberless HEP-isode, the boys head to opposite coasts to hit bothe the AISTech show in PA and the ACT Expo in Las Vegas, spend some time in an all-new VNL sleeper cab with Volvo Vice President Jared Ruiz, and take a deep dive into what it takes to make electric trucks work in the real world. All this PLUS life at 160 mph with the good people from Chase and Sanborn.
Electric logistics firm Zeem Solutions celebrated some good reliability news at ACT Expo last week, after its commercial charging depot at LAX hit a huge milestone, surpassing 350,000 successful charging sessions as one of the highest-throughput charging facilities in the US. "What the 350,000-session milestone really measures is reliability at scale," says Rick Eckert, Vice President of Operations at Zeem Solutions. "Every one of those sessions represents a fleet vehicle that needed to get back on the road on time. The fact that we have been able to deliver that consistently, across an increasingly diverse set of vehicles and duty cycles, is what gives our customers the confidence to expand their electric fleets and gives us the confidence to invest in the next generation of depots." Zeem's message has consistently been that that reliability isn't just about making sure EV chargers work when you plug your car into them (and, for the record, Zeem's do, with the first 4 months of 2026 delivering more than 75,000 charging sessions and dispensing a whopping 3.2 million kWhs of electricity). To Zeem, reliability includes knowing the industries your customers work in and understanding what your partners need. To that end, Zeem is bringing an unprecedented level of operational expertise, with contracted and pre-scheduled charging sessions allowing Zeem to maintain a 98% charger uptime to accommodate a mix of light-duty, medium-duty, and class 8 vehicles on one site, while also providing 24/7/365 valets to rotate out charged units, perform visual inspections on fleet vehicles, and provide regular maintenance and as-needed repairs. Parking, security, and cleaning services are also included. "You learn a tremendous amount from 350,000 commercial charging sessions, and those lessons have shaped Zeem 2.0 as we bring our proven model directly to customer fleet sites," explains Paul Gioupis, Founder and CEO of Zeem Solutions. "Five years of operating commercial EV charging at scale has taught us what drives uptime, where execution matters most, and why reliability is non-negotiable. The future of transportation depends on infrastructure that performs every day in real-world fleet operations, and Zeem is delivering that today at scale." All of this charging has also shown a huge environmental impact, with the 350,000 EV charging session milestone avoiding an estimated 5.6 million kg of CO2 emissions – equivalent to burning 634,831 gallons of gasoline or powering more than 1,100 average US homes for a full year. Zeem plans to open charging depots to serve the SeaTac and Long Beach commercial fleet markets next, and is actively developing additional facilities nationwide to meet the needs of the growing electric vehicle fleet. We had a chance to sit down with Paul at last week's ACT Expo in Las Vegas, where we talked charging, maintenance, incentives, Tesla Semi, and a whole lot more as Zeem's Eastward expansion rolls on. Check it out, at top, then let us know what you think of Paul's plans in the comments. Or, if you prefer listening to interviews, check out the audio-only version, below. SOURCE | IMAGES: Zeem.

In this episode, we kick things off by examining a major compliance crackdown that has shaken up the electronic logging device market. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration revealed that a staggering 67 devices have been revoked since January 2025, with two more manufacturers just added to the list for failing to meet minimum technical requirements. Carriers currently using these revoked devices face a tight deadline to switch to compliant ELDs or risk being placed out of service after the sixty-day grace period expires on July 7, 2026. Next, we explore the electric vehicle sector where Tesla's long-awaited Semi has just landed a blockbuster deployment order. Listen in to learn how WattEV ordered 370 Tesla Semi trucks in what will become California's largest single electric truck deployment, with more than 300 units operating under a joint program with the Port of Oakland. To support this massive fleet, WattEV plans to open truck-charging stations equipped with Tesla's Megawatt Charging System chargers that can add 300 miles of range in about thirty minutes. Finally, we unpack the Southeast's most ambitious infrastructure project as Georgia Ports outlined a nearly $5 billion self-financed investment plan to add five new big ship berths and support a projected 54 percent growth in container throughput. Researchers at Georgia Tech found that routing cargo through Savannah saves shippers more than $1,000 per container when delivering to key inland markets compared to West Coast gateways, cementing the port's dominance as the Southeast's logistics gateway of choice.

Even though autonomous passenger vehicles have entered the mainstream in cities across the country, autonomous trucks still lag behind. But Humble Robotics thinks it has cracked the code with a new design that completely does away with the tractor-trailer model we see on the highway every day. In this episode, Shayle speaks to Eyal Cohen, founder and CEO of Humble. The company built its electric trucks from the ground up. Fully cabless, they combine the tractor and trailer into a single platform designed to optimize energy efficiency, unit economics, and roadway safety. Shayle and Eyal explore topics including: The differences between autonomous passenger and freight vehicles The challenge of transporting heavy payloads at high speeds Why Humble has shifted away from LiDar in favor of a camera-centric approach offered by visual language models (VLMs) The unit economics of electric and autonomous freight Why Humble is embracing a "hub-to-hub" model for its trucks The evolving regulatory landscape for autonomous trucking Resources Catalyst: Volts crossover: Six big energy questions Latitude Media: Can the Tesla Semi finalize decarbonize trucking?

Of 11,103 new cars registered, 10,952 were fully electric, with diesel managing just 87 units and petrol a mere 31 units — making combustion-engine sales little more than a rounding error.TESLA CUTS MODEL 3 PRICES IN CANADATesla has slashed prices across its Canadian Model 3 line-up, introducing a new entry Premium RWD trim starting at C$39,490 — about 31% cheaper than the equivalent US price — after shifting production from its Fremont plant to its Shanghai factory to take advantage of Canada's new 6.1% Chinese-EV import tariff. The line-up now has just two trims after removing the Long Range mid-range, though Shanghai-built cars do not qualify for Canada's federal EVAP rebate of up to C$5,000.FACTORIAL BETS SOLID-STATE CAN BREAK CHINA'S LEADFactorial Energy, a Massachusetts-based startup backed by Mercedes-Benz, Stellantis, and Hyundai/Kia, argues that solid-state batteries — which charge from 15% to 90% in 18 minutes and offer 20–50% more range than lithium-ion — are the West's best chance to leapfrog Chinese rivals rather than imitate them. The company plans to go public on Nasdaq in mid-2026 via a SPAC merger, and a Mercedes-Benz EQS prototype fitted with its cells drove 1,205 km non-stop in August 2025.IONIQ 5 SALES HOLD UP AFTER US TAX CREDIT LOSSHyundai's IONIQ 5 held fifth place among US EV sellers in 2025 despite losing the federal EV tax credit, while rivals like the Ford Mustang Mach-E saw sales collapse 60% year-on-year in Q1 2026. Domestic production at Hyundai Metaplant America in Savannah, Georgia was credited as a key factor in shielding the IONIQ 5 from the impact of Trump administration trade policy changes.VOLKSWAGEN RAISES RIVIAN STAKE TO 15.9%Volkswagen has lifted its stake in Rivian to 15.9% after completing a further $1 billion investment tranche, triggered by the RV Tech joint venture clearing its winter testing milestones, bringing its total investment to $3 billion of a committed $5.8 billion. Volkswagen gains access to Rivian's software stack and zonal architecture, while Rivian retains full ownership of its motors, batteries, chassis, and autonomy framework.VW TESTS 'GAMECHANGER' AT WOLFSBURGVolkswagen has launched a pilot production process codenamed Gamechanger at its Wolfsburg headquarters, aimed at cutting costs and enabling profitable EV manufacturing in Germany through techniques expected to include megacasting and parallel modular assembly streams. The plant is expected to eventually produce an electric Golf and an SUV counterpart on the next-generation SSP platform, potentially under the names ID. Golf and ID. Roc.TESLA LAUNCHES BASECHARGER FOR SEMI DEPOTSTesla has unveiled the Basecharger, a depot-focused DC fast charger for the Tesla Semi that tops out at 125 kW and can charge a truck from low to 60% in around four hours, using a 6-metre cable to accommodate yard layouts. The unit starts at $20,000, supports the open MCS (Megawatt Charging System) standard, and up to three units can share a single breaker — potentially serving future MCS-compatible trucks from Daimler, Volvo, and Scania.MFG EV POWER ADDS PLUG&CHARGEMotor Fuel Group has integrated its MFG EV Power network of around 2,000 rapid and ultra-rapid UK charging points with Hubject's Plug&Charge infrastructure, going live on 1 May 2026 after over a year of technical development. Compatible EVs can now begin charging automatically the moment they plug in, eliminating the need for RFID cards or apps.ALLEGO APP ADDS EUROPE-WIDE CHARGING ROAMINGAllego has transformed its app into a pan-European roaming platform, giving drivers access to roughly one million charging points from competing networks under a single account with no additional roaming fees. The app also includes a Smart Route Planner to help EV drivers plan charging stops across longer cross-border journeys.NEW AI VOICE ASSISTANTS FOR RIVIAN, POLESTAR AND VOLVO EVSRivian's AI voice assistant — first unveiled at its December 2025 Autonomy & AI Day — is now expected to reach customers in the coming weeks after slipping roughly four months behind its original early-2026 target, and will roll out to both R1 and R2 vehicles. Separately, Google has begun rolling out Gemini to Polestar and Volvo cars running Android Automotive OS, enabling conversational AI with multi-turn dialogue, trip planning, and a continuous hands-free mode called Gemini Live — with Volvo saying models dating back to 2020 are eligible for the upgrade.

The gap between Elon Musk's ambitious promises for Tesla and the practical realities of the company's performance leading into 2026. While Musk continues to tease future innovations like the "Cybervan" and a steering-wheel-free Cybercab, the texts highlight significant delays in electric vehicle sales growth, the Optimus robot program, and the mass production of the Tesla Semi. Regulatory challenges are also central, as California officials clarify that Tesla's ride-hailing service is currently a standard chauffeur operation rather than a true autonomous "robotaxi" network. Furthermore, analysts express skepticism regarding the technical safety and data transparency of Tesla's self-driving software compared to competitors. Collectively, the reports portray a company transitioning toward artificial intelligence and robotics while struggling to meet previously established industrial and autonomous milestones.
The US Postal Service is proposing a historic 8% fuel surcharge on parcel products to combat rising transportation costs fueled by the war in Iran. This unprecedented move aims to help the agency manage skyrocketing gasoline and diesel prices while transitioning to a sustainable long-term pricing model. In the logistics sector, intense union pressure has forced UPS to walk back a massive $150,000 driver buyout program across 13 states. The Teamsters union successfully argued that these lucrative separation agreements bypassed regional contracts, stalling the company's efforts to eliminate 30,000 jobs amid falling parcel volumes. Finally, a new real-world freight study by the North American Council for Freight Efficiency is challenging conventional wisdom regarding commercial powertrains. While traditional diesel trucks shattered expectations by hitting 11.5 miles per gallon, electric vehicles like the Tesla Semi proved their long-term viability by completing a 460-mile trip on a single charge.

This week we're joined by Phil Koopman. We dig into Waymo's safety claims, noting outdated or unsupported references, shifting software stacks, and metrics that can look better simply because vehicles crash while empty. Plus we highlight regulatory and liability gray zones, arguing “remote assistance” still makes safety-critical driving decisions while industry language tries to make nobody accountable, and warns proposed laws could label the ADS as the “driver.” Other topics include a complaint alleging unaccompanied minors ride in AVs, a wrong-way AV incident, rosy media takes on UK AVs, Tesla Semi hype and recalls/investigations involving power seats, rear cameras, and Tesla FSD in poor visibility.Support the show!https://avsc.sae-itc.com/publication/avsc-04-2023https://cagigunion.org/news/2026/03/17/california-gig-workers-union-files-complaint-against-waymo-for-allegedly-violating-california-permit-by-transporting-unaccompanied-minors/https://philkoopman.substack.com/p/why-robotaxis-have-an-inherent-3xhttps://www.kgw.com/article/news/national/watch-driverless-waymo-car-caught-going-wrong-way/507-00a51f30-e0ed-458e-b8d5-85c6dbbce19bhttps://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/utah-lawmakers-approve-legal-framework-120225763.htmlhttps://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/mar/19/my-ride-in-a-self-driving-taxi-londonhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/03/21/autonomous-vehicles-dc-waymo-ddot/https://www.wsj.com/business/logistics/truckers-tesla-fans-semi-b0a66e6ehttps://arstechnica.com/security/2026/03/after-hack-some-ignition-interlock-users-couldnt-start-their-own-cars/https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V160-3144.pdfhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V173-8909.pdfhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V165-2897.pdf

AI FearI've listened to a few podcasts featuring Marc Benioff in the last year. He is 100% all-in on AI. The idea that SAAS will be completed disrupted by AI is over-hyped. Jensen Huang put it well: AI will not invent a new hammer or screwdriver; they'll just use what exists. Analogy is to SaaS companies in general.

In this episode, we explore the paradoxical freight environment of early 2026, where strategic cost management drives success for industry giants while others face immediate collapse. We analyze how J.B. Hunt achieved a Q4 earnings beat through internal discipline, even as the broader market offers mixed signals on demand. The distress in the market is palpable, evidenced by the abrupt closure of Taylor Express that left drivers stranded without fuel or pay. We also discuss the layoffs at Smoky Mountain Logistics, proving that even specialized Amazon partners are not immune to the industry's financial squeeze. On the strategic front, we examine why Titanium Transportation is going private with a significant stock premium to escape the pressures of public reporting. The conversation also shifts to innovation, highlighting how RoadOne's investment in the Tesla Semi demonstrates the growing viability of vertically integrated electric trucks. Finally, we uncover the systemic regulatory failures surrounding the upcoming trial of Dartanyan Gasanov, a key figure in the chameleon carrier network responsible for the tragedy that killed seven Marines. This segment serves as a stark reminder of the deadly risks that persist when unsafe operators slip through the cracks of federal oversight.

In this post-holiday hangover episode of Freight Expectations, Craig Fuller and Matt Leffler tackle the “dumbest law” in trucking and why a pending Supreme Court ruling could change your wallet forever. The hosts go scorched-earth on the Tesla Semi, revealing why charging just one truck takes as much power as 4,000 American homes, and break down the “Dumbass” Safety Act that could effectively ban the world's safest carriers from hauling broker freight. From explaining why your magazines are legally exempt from tariffs to the urgent need for a Yellowstone-style show to educate a “clueless” Congress, it's an unfiltered deep dive into shrinkflation, federal supremacy, and the supply chain “we deserve”.

On yesterday's show we talked about how AI might be influencing the functional obsolescence of industrial warehouses. On today's show we are looking at another aspect of AI and how it could affect the value of industrial real estate. On today's show we looking at how transportation is going to evolve with the advent of autonomous trucking. Will this have an impact on industrial property? Now this sounds like science fiction and something that is going to be in the distant future. But it's much closer than you think.Many of these new trucks will also be electric vehicles. I don't know when Tesla's semi truck will hit the market in a big way. The first production Tesla Semis were delivered to PepsiCo in December 2022. Since then, a small number of trucks have been delivered to a handful of other customers for real-world testing and fleet integration.Let's put this in perspective. The power supply to charge just one Tesla Semi is the same power required to supply about 988 homes. Let's say that you want to be able to charge a couple of trucks at a time and you need to add 1000 If your warehouse is not sitting next to a major power source, how are you going to find the spare power capacity for 2000 homes at the site of your industrial warehouse? If you can't get the power, then your warehouse is going to be functionally obsolete.------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

CSX CEO Joe Hinrichs challenges the long-standing obsession with operating ratios and pushes for volume growth, especially in high-potential areas like intermodal. He believes railroads can achieve both high profit margins and volume growth, emphasizing interline partnerships as a critical strategy to access new markets and improve service. Global trade winds are literally shifting freight patterns, with China drastically reducing its U.S. soybean imports due to trade tensions and retaliatory tariffs. This significant decrease in exports is creating a substantial drop in freight demand, particularly affecting Midwest states and potentially leading to job losses across trucking, rail, and port operations. High-stakes trade negotiations between the U.S. and South Korea, involving a proposed $350 billion South Korean investment fund aimed at underwriting U.S. shipbuilding, manufacturing, and other critical development. Despite reported stalls in discussions over foreign exchange markets and recent tensions, strategic commitments like Hanwha Group's $5 billion investment in a Philadelphia shipyard highlight re-industrialization efforts. At home, the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach are showing positive trends, reporting improved truck and rail dwell times in August 2025. This reflects strong coordination between terminals, trucking partners, and railroads, ensuring supply chains remain reliable during peak shipping season despite high cargo volumes. Uber Freight has launched its Dedicated EV Fleet Accelerator Program in partnership with Tesla. This program aims to overcome major adoption barriers for electric trucks by offering subsidized access to Tesla Semi-trucks, guaranteed freight demand, and direct operational support. We also address recent operational realities, including the temporary outage of critical FMCSA public data, which underscored the absolute importance of timely and accessible information for trucking safety and compliance. Finally, the ongoing liquidation of Yellow Corp. continues to reshape the LTL landscape, with over 200 service centers sold for nearly $2.4 billion, significantly realigning physical assets and market capacity.

Continuando con Tesla, profundizamos en el estado de sus promesas de Full Self-Driving y los Robotaxis, señalando que, a pesar de los anuncios, el servicio de robotaxis en Austin todavía requiere de un supervisor humano, lo que pone en cuestión el nivel de autonomía real.

He also provides an update on where Tesla is today, why he loves working with fleets, why sometimes it can be challenging for fleets to make a big commitment on a new technology and why he thinks in the future fleets will appreciate the longevity and potential of EVs.
