It’s officially $25K now. The original target of $20K was based on the idea that the $7500 EV rebate existed, which it did when they first announced the Slate. I’m super interested in the Slate, but I don’t need a new car yet and I have a gut feeling that there will be laws forcing newer models to include a bunch of phone home spyware bullshit in all vehicles soon, which would take away much of the appeal of the Slate.
I can forgive and even cheer the absolute bare bones amenities it offers including no telemetry for the price. The hardest pill to swallow is the lackluster battery range and max charge rate.
Like Slate? I have high hopes for them but the price is already creeping toward $30K.

The price leaked at ~$25k
I’ve had my Slate reservation for over a year now, and will make the deposit on the 24th. I can’t wait! :D

They do say that while the federal rebate is gone, some state rebates do still exist.

There’s also the Telo MT1. Costs significantly more, but I understand that it’s expected to have a longer range. It’s also a small EV truck.
