- reitzensteinm 6y agoFor what it's worth, there's a first edition available next year. I can't imagine this is going to sell well, and I'd be amazed if they make a profit. But it looks like a beast, and I think Arnie driving around in an electric Hummer with a cigar in his mouth will serve the same purpose for a different crowd as the Roadster did way back when. Plus of course Rivian and the Cybertruck, although I think they'll probably each hit different sweet spots with a lot of overlap.
- tibbydudeza 6y agoI saw a "review" of the new Ford Bronco by a youtube car channel ... it had no engine and thus could not be road tested :(.
- throwawaysea 6y agoThis is a big vehicle - can't it store larger batteries and get greater range? I feel like 350 miles in ideal condition is not what I want in a truck that may be taken offroad to remote areas.
- jcims 6y agoI would imagine this is mostly going to be a status vehicle. That said low center of gravity, plausibly submersible drivetrain, four wheel steering, bagged suspension and four independent drive motors are going to make it extremely capable off-road vs just about any other truck on the market.
- zhaphod 6y agoMisleading title. 350-mile versions starts at $112000 and available in Fall-21. $80k version is 250mile and is available from Spring-24.
