What believers are saying

  • RIDE showcased the Fourth Generation 8Y yard truck at ACT Expo in April 2026.

What critics are saying

  • Antelope Valley's second 600,000-square-foot plant remains delayed, constraining scale and hiring.
  • BYD spinoff baggage and 2025 truck-business takeover invite regulatory scrutiny and customer skepticism.
