This mini pickup EV is almost perfect. It's called the Telo and it has the same bed length as a mid-size pickup like a HiLux but it's the same overall length as a small hatchback. There may be safety challenges with that super short nose, but in terms of practicality I'm impressed.

500HP is a little insane and very 2023 where almost every EV is overpowered. But hey, it's better than underpowered.

@gpowerf Seeing it next to the Tacoma shows that most modern trucks have a hood that's too long!

@BackFromTheDud indeed. A big advantage of reducing the hood length is potentially reducing overhangs and wheelbase length, which would improve off-road ability :)
