Southern California continues to serve as a primary stage for urban mobility transformation. In his new letter, our Founder & CEO John Rossant examines why Los Angeles, the birthplace and global exporter of Car Culture, remains central to industry development and outlines the significance of this November: marking a decade of CoMotion events in Downtown LA, the debut of CoMotion NXT in Long Beach, and annual LA New Mobility Challenge. 👉 Read the full letter here: na2.hubs.ly/H07Z0yQ0

On November 17, 200+ visionary leaders across transportation, logistics, policy, technology, and sustainability will gather at @LongBeachCity for CoMotion NXT ahead of CoMotion LA on November 18-19. @portoflongbeach’s CEO Dr. Noel Hacegaba has set two ambitious targets: double annual cargo by 2050 and become America's first zero-emissions port. Achieving these goals will require breakthroughs in advanced manufacturing, space and aerospace, logistics, renewable energy, and new mobility. Hosted by @LongBeachMayor in partnership with the Port, the invite-only event will convene the capital, partnerships, and innovation needed to connect the Port's industrial ambition with the region's deep-tech ecosystem. The day includes offsite visits to the Port of Long Beach and @LGBAirport, plus a VIP reception at the JetZero Hangar.

📈 @@May_Mobility is making history by going public — the first company focused entirely on #AVs hitting the market via SPAC merger. While Google, Amazon, and Tesla hedge their bets on AV strategy, May Mobility has a very clear business plan: it will sell its self-driving tech to fleet managers, principally public transit authorities and ride-hail operators. We’ll see how investors react. 🔗 Our Founder and CEO John Rossant sits down with Invest: Capital Analytics Associates to discuss the ongoing urban mobility revolution and the role we are playing in it: “You can think of CoMotion as the connective tissue of the global urban mobility ecosystem...” 🇪🇺 Europe just entered the #driverless era. Zagreb's @VerneLabs and @PonyAI_tech launched the continent's first #robotaxi rides with zero safety supervisor on board. Then Spain handed @Uber, @WeRide_ai, and AVEMO the first national Level 4 AV permits. Autonomy isn't coming to Europe anymore... it's already here. ⚖️ @Uber and @lyft drivers in California just cleared the path to #unionize. Massachusetts and Washington drivers already won work and pay protections. But here's the twist: they're still classified as independent contractors. As robotaxis expand, human drivers will be fewer — and unions will need to fight harder. 👉 Subscribe to our 2x weekly mobility digest for the full story: na2.hubs.ly/H07TNr-0

Speaker alert! 🎉 Phil Pierce leads the city #policy and government engagement across the US for the all-electric, #autonomous vehicle company, Zoox. @Zoox is building a safer, cleaner, and more enjoyable future on the road with their purpose-built #robotaxi, combinging cutting-edge technology and a focus on the rider experience. Hear from Phil and other #AV experts on what it takes to work with local governments and to scale autonomous #mobility safely and responsibly at CoMotion LA ‘26 on November 18-19 in Downtown LA. 🎟️ Grab your pass before Oct 19 and save 30%: na2.hubs.ly/H07TDhR0

Nearly 40 million people in the U.S. live in a multifamily building, where EV charging access has to be shared. But the majority of both funding and infrastructure devoted to charging is still either in the roadway or in single family homes. What’s an apartment-dweller to do? Enter @swtchenergy, which rapidly scales the EV charging network in multifamily and commercial buildings; in this episode of Fast Forward, host Nick Perloff-Giles sits down with Jeremy Cohen, Head of Real Estate Partnerships, to talk about the challenges of compliance, the future of charging, and what’s in store for the market more broadly. 🎧 Tune in now: na2.hubs.ly/H07SQ9n0

Huge congrats to it's electric! 🎉 The 2022 LA New Mobility Challenge Winner and Brooklyn-born leader in curbside EV charging has just announced it has been officially selected by the @nycgov and its partner the @NYPAenergy to build out the city's permanent curbside electric vehicle charging network across all five boroughs. This follows an announcement from the @NYC_DOTr detailing the city's PlugNYC curbside EV charging expansion from the current 88 Level 2 charging points that are heavily used across the city to 700. The expansion will support the city’s ambitious climate goals by facilitating the transition from fossil fuel-powered vehicles to electric vehicles. The transportation sector is one of the top contributors to greenhouse gas emissions in New York City and part of the Mamdani Administration’s vision for curb management is use of the curb to meet a wider range of public needs. 👉 Read the full press release: na2.hubs.ly/H07R6RW0

🚗 The @Tesla Cybercab is picking up #robotaxi customers in parts of Austin, but shares fell anyway, with observers wondering why Elon Musk was nowhere to be seen at a launch he didn't even livestream. 🤖 @NHTSAgov opens an investigation into @Tesla's self-certification, and if the review mirrors @zoox's experience, rollout could slow dramatically. The feds certified Zoox's robotaxis this year, but capped production at 2,500 a year. 🇬🇧 @Uber begins robotaxi rides in London in 15 autonomous Ford Mach-Es powered by @wayve_ai, with a human supervisor still required by regulation. 🅿️ @Waymo vehicles in the Bay Area are racking up 100+ parking tickets a week. @MeterFeeder's Co-Founder & CEO Jim Gibbs notes #AVs use #curb space 8–10x more efficiently than human drivers. The real question #cities must answer is who puts the quarter in the meter when there's no one in the #car? 👉 Subscribe to our 2x weekly mobility digest for the full story: na2.hubs.ly/H07Jskn0

🔋 Canadian auto giant @MagnaInt doubles down on @YumaEnergy, the Bengaluru startup spun out of Yulu, betting that swap stations are what India's delivery army needs. 🇮🇳 Delhi's metro now carries 6.5 million people a day across 258 miles of track, longer than New York's, despite being a full century younger. 🍔 @Uber's $15B bid for @deliveryherocom just got board approval, a move that could make it Europe's largest food delivery player. It’s a reminder that Uber’s many partnerships with AV firms are not just about robotaxis. 🤖 @Waymo personnel are firing back on social media after calling out @Tesla's camera-only approach to autonomy — and remarkably, Elon Musk hasn't responded yet. For once, the #AV rivalry is playing out in public. 👉 Subscribe to our 2x weekly mobility digest for the full story: na2.hubs.ly/H07CHZT0

Battery fires are becoming a growing problem in New York City. What can we do about it? While batteries have fueled the e-mobility-enabled rise of delivery apps like Doordash, they often exist in black market, underregulated spaces, where fires are common. But what if you disintermediated the system, by offering shared batteries swappable at a moment's notice? That's the model of PopWheels. "Stop charging, start swapping". Fast Forward host Nick Perloff-Giles sits down with Co-Founder David Hammer to discuss the company's success in moving towards a shared, safer battery future. 🎧 Tune in now: na2.hubs.ly/H07lqMG0 #Battery #NYC #Mobility #Transportation #EBike
