    Your Rivian could look like KITT from Knight Rider this month.

    Rivian’s R1S looks KITT-ed out on its infotainment screen in a new video with David Hasselhoff driving it off into the sunset. The front of the R1S in the video even animates with the iconic red scanner light.

    Rivian says this is part of its Halloween software update and will be available for a limited time.

    The 2025 GMC Sierra EV Denali has a bit more range.

    After delivering the limited 2024 “Denali Edition 1” in August, the GM brand is shipping the next model year version with a higher Max Range option that goes up to 460 miles on a single charge — same as the new Chevy Silverado EV RST.

    GM also slightly lowered the starting price for the Denali: now $91,995, including destination charges but not other fees.
