Elon promises FSD by year’s end, but Einride has L4 autonomy for big trucks TODAY

It’s a question of who is actually delivering product and who is just delivering promises on today’s delivery-heavy episode of Quick Charge! Is the tenth time a charm for Elon’s FSD, or will Einride CEO Roozbeh Charli steal his self-driving thunder?

We’ve also got some concerning news about Tesla’s Actually Smart Summon app getting faster, a sneak peek at some upcoming affordable EVs from BMW, Stellantis, and Volvo, and a full interview discussing Amazon’s multimillion dollar middle mile deal with Einride CEO Roozbeh Charli.
