One of the most renowned explorers of the age of exploration, Shackleton led a total of three expeditions through the South Pole most famously on board his ship, the Endurance
The ousted founder of bankrupt EV startup Lordstown Motors has launched a new company called LandX Motors, that prominently displays the same electric pickup truck he once promised would beat Tesla, Ford and General Motors to market. Steve Burns, a self-described "serial entrepreneur," bought most of the remaining assets of his former startup late last year as part of the Lordstown's Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, including a large chunk of its electric pickup trucks. On a new website for LandX Motors, he says this company will chart "the future of mobility," and claims he will build a whole lineup of vehicles on the platform that underpins what used to be called the Endurance.
Steve Burns acquires the bankrupt company’s assets for $10 million and told Autoweek he’s still committed to producing Endurance trucks. Observers are skeptical.
