Digital Insurance published its weekly roundup of insurtech news highlights, covering several partnership announcements and market expansions across the insurance technology sector.

Lyft announced a collaboration with Smartcar, an API platform for mobility businesses, to address electric vehicle range anxiety among rideshare drivers.

According to Lyft product manager Ciara Chow, the feature enables drivers to "take on rides without constantly worrying about their battery levels."

The roundup also highlighted other insurtech developments, including CATIC's entry into the Texas market and ZestyAI's expanded partnership with West Bend Insurance, though details on these items were limited in the available excerpt.
