The funding comes almost one year to the day after Harbinger announced a $160 million Series C, which included an initial truck order from FedEx. Harbinger has now raised more than $650 million to date, according to Bloomberg News, which first reported the round.
FedEx invested again after leading last year's round. Other repeat investors included Maniv, Greycroft and Leitmotif, a VC firm backed by Volkswagen. Fidelity Management, which tends to invest in pre-IPO startups, also invested. Harbinger is reportedly weighing going public.
FedEx's relationship with Harbinger continues to deepen. The shipping company's senior vice president of safety and transportation, Paul Melander, has joined Harbinger's board of directors. FedEx also recently placed its first large order with Harbinger, a deal for 2,000 trucks valued at more than $300 million.
Founded in 2022 by former employees of now-defunct EV startup Canoo and battery company QuantumScape, Harbinger started by making one electric truck chassis. It has since bought autonomy startup Phantom AI, begun developing hybrid emergency vehicles and revealed a driverless hybrid electric platform for the military.
