Slate is promising a mid $20K EV pickup truck. This is a Jeff Bezos backed company, so they should have plenty of money to get this to market and if the specs are true, this is a very interesting new entry into the US market. China has plenty of truly affordable EV options, but that's not the case here. We need more.
