Episode 2- GM's Xevo marketplace flop. Seimens EV fast-build charger prototype. Tackling EV charging maintenance. Discussion: The expanding EV market ecosystem.
Welcome to our new episode of That New Car Sense, our podcast on connected cars, smart cities, IoT, V2X, digital payments, and location technologies. We’ll be looking at news this month in the space, then we'll be joined by Randy Brown, our director of communications at Sheeva.ai where we'll discuss the "Wild West" of the EV market ecosystem, and how it could play out in the coming years.
What's on our news radar in this episode:
(0:07) Intro
(1:06) GM's Xevo marketplace goes dark - General Motors is sunsetting its first attempt at a connected car marketplace. Powered by Xevo, was the marketplace app GM made available for a subscription on their in-vehicle systems too early?
(9:15) Siemens speeds up the next-gen charger station – No, it may not charge faster, but Siemens is partnering with modular building tech firm Nexii to rapidly put up the next generation of fast chargers. They want to cut the time from sitting to building to expand the charger network quickly.
(19:21) Go with the Flo...with ChargerHelp! - Canadian EV charging station asset managers Flo and teaming up with charger maintenance startup firm ChargerHelp!. These assets need monitoring -- and repairing - in real-time as they will become infrastructure mission-critical assets.
And for our discussion:
(26:09) The EV market is poised to grow even more dramatically in the coming years. 200+ different new EVs will be coming on the market in the next couple of model years. The race is on to have enough locations to charge them all. But are the existing business models effective as this tech goes from early adopter evangelism to middle-market commodity? How will we build and deploy a new charging system and how will the hosts of all its hardware manage it?
(48:07) Wrap-Up
Your hosts: Jack Van Wey and Trevor Curwin (@tcurwin)
