Funding Will Accelerate Production of P1, A First-Of-Its-Kind Personal Electric Vehicle

NEW YORK, Oct. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Infinite Machine, the New York-based company building the next generation of non-car vehicles, today announced the close of its seed funding round. The $9.3M round was led by Andreessen Horowitz through its American Dynamism fund, with additional participation from Adjacent Capital, Necessary Ventures, Otherwise Fund, the founders of Reformation, Replit, and HuggingFace and Formula 1 World Champion Nico Rosberg (Founder Rosberg Ventures). The capital will accelerate production and the market launch of Infinite Machine’s debut product P1 — a high-performance electric scooter designed to be the ultimate vehicle for urban environments.

“P1 is the first step in our vision of a post-car future,” said co-founder and CEO Joseph Cohen. “We couldn’t be more excited to partner with a16z and our other investors to bring our vision to life. This round of capital will allow us to scale production and start shipping vehicles to customers next year.”

P1 is a tool created to unlock the experience of living in and exploring a city. It offers next-gen technology that blends practicality and performance: its electric drivetrain is staggeringly quick, quiet, and it features a high-performance removable battery that can be charged at home with a standard outlet. P1 is modular and can adapt to carry cargo, spare batteries and even a speaker. It is fully connected, with an onboard automotive-grade computer and remote app for convenience and security. The vehicle can seat two passengers comfortably and can be operated for up to speeds of 30 mph with a standard driver’s license in the US. With a motorcycle license, a software unlock enables speeds of up to 55 mph.

Infinite Machine was founded by brothers Joseph and Eddie Cohen, who saw an opportunity to create urban vehicles that combined advanced technology, high performance, elevated design, and modularity. Dissatisfied with subpar performance, uninspiring designs, and the lack of good technology in existing urban vehicles, they brought together a team of builders from Tesla, Boosted, and Apple to realize their vision.

“We obsessed over every detail of P1,” shares Eddie. “Our singular focus was to create the best personal electric vehicle in the world and every decision we made—whether it was design, engineering, materiality, or software—was driven by an uncompromising dedication to the product itself.”

P1 is available for pre-order at infinitemachine.com, with deliveries expected to begin in 2025. This marks a significant milestone in the company’s mission to inspire a future where urban transportation is no longer dominated by cars, but by efficient, compact, and sustainable alternatives.

About Infinite Machine

Infinite Machine exists to make the most compelling non-cars on earth and to inspire a post-car future. P1, its first product, is a radical new personal electric vehicle for cities, pairing cutting edge industrial design with breakthrough performance and utility. The company was created by brothers Joseph and Eddie Cohen, lifelong vehicle enthusiasts and New Yorkers. They wanted to build vehicles that fit their lives—inspiring designs with great performance and deep practicality—that show an exciting vision for the future of transportation.

TAE Technologies, the leading fusion energy company developing the cleanest and safest approach to commercial fusion power, today announced that it has raised more than $150 million in its latest funding round, exceeding the company’s initial target for the round. Chevron, Google and NEA participated in the round, among other new and existing investors. TAE has the option to raise additional capital as part of this funding round. With more than $1.3 billion in equity capital raised since inception, this latest fundraise further validates TAE’s distinctive approach to commercial fusion.

In a statement Michl Binderbauer, CEO of TAE Technologies, said: “Fusion has the potential to transform the energy landscape, providing near-limitless clean power at a time when the world’s energy needs are growing exponentially due to the growth of AI and data centers. TAE’s technology uses the soundest physics to deliver superior performance in a compact machine, with attractive economics and best-in-class maintainability. We are leading the charge to develop revolutionary fusion technology for full-scale commercial deployment.”

TAE was founded in 1998 to develop commercial fusion power with the cleanest environmental profile. The company has established itself as a leader in an industry that has the potential to transform the energy economy. Since 2014, TAE and Google Research have worked together to accelerate fusion science using cutting-edge machine learning. Google engineers worked onsite at TAE facilities to co-develop advanced plasma reconstruction algorithms, leading to significantly improved plasma lifetime and performance. Fusion is nature’s preferred source of energy. It is the same process that powers the sun and stars, and it is what makes life viable on Earth. When lighter elements fuse under immense heat and pressure, they form new elements and release a tremendous amount of energy. This process is safer than conventional nuclear power because fusion can be stopped at any time – eliminating the risk of a power plant meltdown. TAE remains singularly committed to advancing the frontiers of science and innovation to benefit humanity. With a steadfast resolve to redefine the energy landscape, TAE Technologies is at the forefront of the fusion revolution, poised to usher in a new era of sustainable and limitless power generation for a better tomorrow.

Joby Aviation, a company developing electric air taxis for commercial passenger service, announced the successful closing of the first $250 million tranche of a previously announced strategic investment from Toyota Motor Corporation. The funding marks a significant milestone in strengthening the long-term collaboration between the two companies and supports their shared vision for the future of air mobility. The investment is aimed at supporting certification and commercial production of Joby’s electric air taxi. This underscores the mutual commitment to deepening integration and delivering next generation travel to global markets. This investment also puts the two companies a step closer toward a strategic manufacturing alliance.

In a statement JoeBen Bevirt, founder and CEO of Joby said, “We’re already seeing the benefit of working with Toyota in streamlining manufacturing processes and optimizing design.” “This is an important next step in our alliance with Toyota to scale the promise of electric flight. With this capital and Toyota’s legendary production expertise, we’re enhancing our ability to scale cutting-edge design and manufacturing to meet the demands of our partners and customers.”

Joby Aviation is a California-based transportation company developing an all-electric, vertical take-off and landing air taxi which it intends to operate as part of a fast, quiet, and convenient service in cities around the world. Powered by six electric motors, their aircraft takes off and lands vertically, giving it the flexibility to serve almost any community. Flying with Joby might feel more like getting into an SUV than boarding a plane. The company's aerial ridesharing service will combine the ease of conventional ridesharing with the power of flight. A green alternative to driving that's bookable at the touch of an app. With more than 30,000 miles flown on full-scale prototype aircraft, their aircraft is designed to meet the uncompromising safety standards set by the FAA and other global aviation regulators. Joby Aviation is now engaged in a multi-year testing program with the FAA to certify their vehicle for commercial operations, and have completed the first three of five stages.
