Rivian CEO Explains Why Zonal Architectures Will Transform How Cars Work

From InsideEVs.

For years, car companies have promised to deliver “smartphones on wheels.” Rivian is one of the few companies actually doing it. In an interview on the Plugged-In Podcast from InsideEVs, Rivian CEO and founder RJ Scaringe breaks down the nuts and bolts of what that actually means. 

It’s a fascinating look at how companies like Rivian are reinventing EV design. RJ explains how car companies have historically built their electrical architectures, what Rivian is doing differently, and how that helped it land an epic $5.8 billion deal with the Volkswagen Group.
