Every trading day, Lucas and Luna sit down with the latest market data, earnings reports, and macro indicators to dissect the business of autonomous vehicles — not the demo reels, but the balance sheets. They track how Waymo, Tesla, Cruise, and Aurora are burning cash, who’s winning the LIDAR cost war, and what the Fed’s rate decisions mean for SPACs that went public with $2 billion valuations and $0 revenue. The show lives in the tension between the technology’s promise and the industry’s capital-intensive reality. When a new Robotaxi approval drops in San Francisco or a trucking pilot launches in Texas, Lucas brings the numbers (unit economics, regulatory timelines, insurance liabilities) and Luna pushes back on the narratives — is this a real inflection point or just another press release? They break down the supply chain for compute chips, the labor economics of trucking, and the liability frameworks forming around autonomy. For listeners who already follow the sector and need to separate signal from noise — not for enthusiasts who just want to hear about lidar specs. The question they always return to: which of these companies will still be independent in five years? #AutonomousVehicles #SelfDrivingCars #Robotaxi #Waymo #Tesla #Cruise #AuroraInnovation #LIDAR #AutonomousTrucking #SPACs #ElectricVehicles #MobilityTech #SupplyChain #Regulatory #Technology #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo© 2026 Fexingo.

  • The Autonomous Vehicle Supply Chain Crunch You Haven't Heard About
    2026/06/06
    Episode 35 of Autonomous Vehicles Business digs into a bottleneck few are talking about: the specialized semiconductors and rare-earth magnets needed to scale self-driving fleets. Lucas and Luna examine how a single fab fire in Taiwan and a cobalt supply squeeze in the DRC are delaying deployments for Waymo, Cruise, and Tesla. They connect the dots between the recent 6% drop in Tesla shares, the 23% slide in Lucid, and the real-world production constraints that have little to do with demand. With commentary on how automakers like GM and Ford are pivoting to in-house chip design and alternative magnet chemistries, this episode explains why the autonomous vehicle revolution depends as much on mining permits and wafer starts as on software miles. A must-listen for anyone tracking AV timelines or investing in the ecosystem. #AutonomousVehicles #SupplyChainCrisis #Semiconductors #RareEarthMagnets #Waymo #Cruise #Tesla #LucidMotors #Rivian #GM #Ford #Cobalt #DRC #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #BusinessAndTechnology #AutonomousTrucks #Manufacturing Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • Why Autonomous Trucks Are Stuck on Rural Routes
    2026/06/06
    Episode 34 of Autonomous Vehicles Business investigates a counterintuitive bottleneck in the self-driving truck industry: rural highways. While cities grab headlines, the long-haul autonomous trucking giants are discovering that the most challenging technical problems lie on two-lane roads without shoulders, inconsistent lane markings, and unpredictable wildlife crossings. Hosts Lucas and Luna break down why companies like TuSimple, Aurora, and Waymo Via have been quietly shifting their test routes from Interstate-10 corridors to secondary highways in Texas and the American West. They examine a new report showing that over 60% of autonomous truck disengagements in Q1 2026 occurred on rural stretches, and what that means for the promised 2027 commercial rollout timeline. The episode also touches on how this rural road challenge is creating a surprising market for high-definition mapping startups and specialty sensor configurations tailored for low-infrastructure environments. #AutonomousTrucks #RuralRoutes #SelfDrivingTrucks #TuSimple #AuroraInnovation #WaymoVia #HDMapping #TruckingIndustry #AutonomousVehicles #BusinessAndTechnology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #AutonomousVehicleBusiness #LucasAndLuna #SupplyChain #Transportation #Logistics #SensorTech Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • The Autonomous Vehicle Cold Storage Problem
    2026/06/05
    Autonomous vehicle testing is expanding rapidly, but one overlooked bottleneck threatens deployment timelines: the lack of climate-controlled storage for fleets. Lucas and Luna explore how cold weather and extreme heat expose sensor limitations, why companies are investing millions in heated and cooled garages, and what this means for the rollout of robotaxis in 2026. With 5-day stock drops across the sector — Tesla down 6%, Rivian down 3.5%, Lucid down 23% — the hosts connect infrastructure gaps to market jitters. They also highlight a startup building modular 'AV garages' that could solve the problem. A concrete look at the unglamorous but critical logistics behind self-driving vehicles. #AutonomousVehicles #SelfDrivingCars #Robotaxis #SensorTechnology #Lidar #ColdWeatherTesting #AVInfrastructure #FleetManagement #ElectricVehicles #Tesla #Waymo #Cruise #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Startup #Logistics Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
