The Slate Auto electric pickup is priced from a $24,950 starting price. The figure appears on the company's website and has been called the cheapest truck in America by a prominent magazine. Industry observers doubt the accuracy 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 boasts a stripped-down interior, omitting touchscreen and using manual crank windows.
