The best daily transportation isn’t a car/truck at all, but there is still some need for freight/hauling to be done.

I’m posting because this truck feels like the opposite of modern trucks. I mean the CyberTruck (literally the icon of Cyberpunk dystopia) and other trucks like Rivian are:

  • extremely anti-right to repair
  • brag about their 0-60 (instead of practicality/efficiency)
  • a privacy nightmare
  • massive in size
  • have high prices across the board
  • are absolutely crammed with manadory luxury features like air conditioned seats or motorized trunks

This truck, with manual roll-up windows, seems to be about getting work done. Its not trying to be the biggest baddest fastest most-techo-advanced thing money can buy.

I bet, in less than 1 year, hobbyists will have solar panel array mounted on the back of these.

    Honestly a utility vehicle that isn’t a surveillance box is like all I want from an electric vehicle

        My thought is, they’re just starting. It is incredibly hard to start a vehicle manufacturing company. Hopefully if they get enough traction (🥁🐍) they’ll expand to vans, roadsters, and 4wd models.

        In the video they mention this as a likely future option.
