Louisville goes electric, Waymo gets $5B, Ford brings production to Michigan

Entertainment

Today’s episode of Quick Charge is a story of, “Thanks, Joe Biden!” as Ford and LG ink a deal to bring EV battery manufacturing back to Michigan, the city of Louisville gets the nation’s first all-electric garbage truck fleet, and Waymo gets a massive $5.6 billion cash injection.

We’ve also got a hydrogen-powered steal battle tank from Hyundai (yes, Hyundai) that’s designed to be incredibly hard to kill and a clever solar carport at the Cincinnati Zoo that promises to make the experience better for everyone in the family.
