An interesting look at how this truck is being conceived. The "Tank Turn" feature is interesting.

Says late 2020. It could be a game changer, if they get it right. A platform that can be sized up or down and I think the range and recharge times will improve quickly.

The 11000lb towing capacity isn't anything to sneeze at either. Imagine the amount of on the fly tuning and traction assist you'll get having a motor at each wheel. Being electric the torque is instantaneous.

Good specs. 400 miles (638 km) of range with the top battery option. That's fantastic for a truck!
