    What is Slate competing with for YOUR money?

    The only other vehicle I am considering is a Civic Sport Touring hatchback. I NEED better fuel economy for my outside sales driving. Tomorrow I’m driving my FJ from Seattle to Newport OR. Ouchy.

    Orange Slate SUV w/ 2" lift, BFG All-Terrain AT T/A tires, upgraded bumper, white roof, roof rack - photos from Cleveland Ohio

    Expected price now "Mid-Twenties" for Slate truck

    Every ICE has range limitations based on fuel economy and the size of the fuel tank. How much does gas cost in your area? In mine, it’s about $4.79/gallon average for regular. That’s a buttload more expensive than kilowatts and not really worth the extra time saved fueling especially if I’m...

    I hate the dashboard!! (and I propose a redesign)

    Took me awhile just to scroll through this. I’m hopeful that the standard phone mount will be easily removable for those that want a head unit with CarPlay mounted where the tablet mount would go. The dash speakers are a terrible idea. Speakers should mount in the doors and in the TOP of the...

    Is there a 12v volt source in the frunk?

    I see it. Is that a LiFePO4 12v battery?

    Need FM Radio

    Agreed. I think the general expectation for audio quality in the Slate is relatively low. That said, throw enough after market dollars at an audio solution and you can get something fairly spectacular. People will vote with their dollars.

    PSA: Extended Range Battery can NOT be added / retrofit installed after purchase (confirmed by Slate)

    You could calculate it per kWh but I think the result will be the same.
