| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to EV News Daily. Coming up today, GM shows off their bidirectional charging, used EV |
| 0:05.8 | EV prices are aligning with fossil cars, and the cyber truck won't get its self-driving tech any time soon. |
| 0:12.5 | Plus stay tuned because later in the show, I'll tell you why Rivian are keeping the R2 reservation numbers under their hat. |
| 0:19.1 | Well, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever |
