"Rivian's heavily financed micromobilty spinoff Also is promising something on October 22nd. Also's calling it "transcendent mobility," which is a fancy way of saying e-bike after a poorly masked video has leaked the rather uniquely designed bicycle. While Also is a legal separate company from Rivian, it's chaired by Rivian founder and CEO RJ Scaringe. Rivian also has a substantial minority ownership stake in the startup."
"What's revealed is a compact pedal-assisted commuter than can double as a utility vehicle with optional cargo rack, integrated lighting, and what appear to be 20-inch wheels. It looks like a cross between a compact Gocycle electric bike and a Cake electric scooter. I can only hope that its battery can be easily swapped out and that it folds down to make it more suitable for multimodal travel on trains and trams."
Also, a well-financed micromobility spinoff of Rivian, plans an October 22 announcement described as "transcendent mobility." The company is legally separate but chaired by Rivian founder RJ Scaringe, and Rivian retains a substantial minority stake. A poorly masked teaser video leaked images of a uniquely designed compact pedal-assisted commuter that appears capable of doubling as a utility vehicle with an optional cargo rack, integrated lighting, and approximately 20-inch wheels. The design resembles a cross between a compact Gocycle electric bike and a Cake electric scooter. Also plans to launch its flagship product in early 2026, targeting the US and Europe, likely with preorders.
