Interesting....

If no boxed frame, not a comparison.

More so a Maverick competitor but an intriguing option for those who want a practical, cheap EV.

Seems like a good, simple, utility vehicle. Love the lack of frills. It's like the EV version of the Toyota Champ if we could get it in the US.

I hope they do well and are actually good vehicles. Maybe this philosophy will catch on. It could definitely have a thriving aftermarket scene.

Really admin? Right infront of my tacoma?

I also am wondering where it is going to be made, and who will make it. Is it a startup or something from an established automaker? I have never seen that discussed so far.

It's made in the USA. Designed in California and Michigan, engineered in Michigan, and assembled in the Midwest, more specifically. I believe this is a start up company with investors and people from differt parts of the industry. They are scheduled to be released until 2026.

I read they are buying or bought a former printing plant in IN (USA) but also just "USA".

It would be great for this plus the R2 and R3 Rivians to be successful - both are competition and innovation.
