YouTuber Converts Used BMW i3 into an $8,000 Electric Pickup

A creative builder transformed a salvaged BMW i3 into a fully functional compact electric pickup truck on a modest budget. The DIY project involved cutting away the rear cabin and fabricating a custom cargo bed out of the EV's carbon-fiber-reinforced structure. The resulting mini-truck beats upcoming compact commercial electric pickups to the road for just a fraction of the cost.
