Slate Opens Debut Showroom as Budget $25,000 Electric Pickup Nears Production

EV startup Slate has unveiled its first retail showroom, offering prospective buyers an up-close look at its planned $25,000 electric pickup. While the prototype aims to fill the long-vacant affordable utility segment, the company now faces the critical test of scaling assembly line operations. Reaching high-volume production at the promised entry price will ultimately determine whether the budget truck can succeed in a competitive market.
