19 Aug 2026, 11:39 PMTechCrunch2.0 Rivian spinout Also raises another $150M

Also, a micromobility startup spun out of Rivian in 2025, raised a $150M Series D led by Prysm Capital with existing backers Eclipse, Greenoaks, and MVP Ventures, bringing total funding to $455M in under two years. The company is expanding beyond pedal-assist e-bikes and commercial cargo quads into autonomous delivery vehicles, leveraging the same electric architecture across form factors, with DoorDash as a commercial partner from a prior $200M round.

Why: Minimal practical impact for this audience. This is a hardware/transportation funding announcement with no software, API, cloud, or AI-tooling implications builders can act on. The autonomous delivery angle is early-stage and tied to DoorDash's commercial agreement, not something accessible to independent developers or SaaS founders.
