The Slate Auto electric pickup is priced from a $24,950 starting price. The figure appears on the company's website and has been labelled as the cheapest truck in America by one major outlet. Industry observers question whether the price may be a website error and suggest the final cost could be higher.
Slate states the price will still ensure a profit on each vehicle and is targeting cash-flow positivity in 2027. The truck features a stripped-down interior, with no touchscreen and using manual crank windows.
