Not only Cybertruck! Collection of cool electric pickups

When Elon Musk showed off the stage Tesla Cybertruck, many admired it and wanted one. I, frankly, the car is not very much, although I'm very respectful to Tesla and all electric vehicles. With all my love to the hefty atmospheric internal combustion engines, I recognize all types of engines. It turns out that not only the ”Sibirtelecom” rich family of electrical pickups. Them much more and some of them can be bought now, and some will be released very soon. I propose to list them and see what they are. After all, to passenger electric vehicles, we have long been accustomed to, but the pickups it's something new.

Interesting is the fact that conventional electric vehicles are certainly gaining popularity, but they were waiting for a lot more. So far so good, but not perfect and need something new. It is the emergence of a large number of electric SUVs and pickups should encourage industry to develop.

Interestingly, even a Hummer, which had Oh so many problems, I decided to start over and to try to replace their legendary model series ”H” on something electrical. However, let's start from the beginning and, of course, the first thing to remember Tesla. Just as it is — you know.

Tesla Cybertruck — Prince electric pickups

Of Course, Cybertruck is at the top of the list. It seems that even those who don't follow the news, know about the futuristic electric truck.

Tesla plans to offer Cybertruck in three variants: three-engine, twin-engine and single-engine versions. The first two are at full drive, and the latter — only on the back. She will serve as the base model. Prices will start from 39 $ 900 for a single-engine variant. The top engine will start from 69 $ 900. Start of sales is scheduled for the end of 2021.

Looks interesting, but too futuristic.

The three-engine version of Mileage on a single charge is about 500 miles (800 km), and acceleration — from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 2.9 seconds. Towing can be a little more than six tons. For single-engine version and the maximum towing is twice as modest. Twin-engine located between them.

GMC Hummer EV — he is coming back

Yes, the full name of the pickup is GMC Hummer EV. Why? It's not a complete reboot of the brand Hummer. Instead, the GMC will sell a pickup truck Hummer EV as a sort of sub-brand from their dealers. However, it is one of the greatest resurrections in the history of the car after the original Hummer died a little more than 10 years ago.

Details about the first electric pickup truck GM still is not enough, but there is a bit of interesting information. The truck will have 1000 horsepower and crazy torque. It is possible that the figures are exaggerated, because the car will have to drive on a single charge not less than 400 km.

Perhaps it will look like new Hummer.

GMC Hummer EV had to be presented in may of this year, but GM pushed back the launch date due to the coronavirus. It's unclear when we will see the novelty at least in the pictures.

Ford F-150 EV — the immortal classics

So far, no data about the electric version of the legendary pickup there, but many reporters cite their sources and claim that the model is accurate.

so the electric F-150 pulls half a million tons.

Right now you can only say that the electric truck is going to have a lot in common with ordinary F-150. In January 2019 Ford first announced its intention to build an electric F-150, and then last summer showed a prototype in action. The truck pulled one million pounds (about 420 000 kg) in tow.

Visual comparison of the Tesla Model S and the new F-150.

According to some reports, the truck will be somehow very interesting to implement a system of ducts on the front panel. Nothing more to say, except that this year we will be able to see more information.

Rivian R1T — machine for Ford

R1T Rivian aroused great interest. Moreover, with the impending release of electric cars, the company and even ensured the inflow of investments from companies such as Amazon and Ford.

R1T-size Honda Ridgeline will overcome 3.3 ft Ford (about one meter), and the car will travel 400 miles (640 km) in maximum configuration.

Rivian R1T

Rivian will offer two other variations of battery packs, which should provide a mileage of approximately 300 miles (480 km) and 230 miles (370 km) respectively. Will be offered a package with a capacity of 700 horsepower with the ability to unlock even more power. The weakest engine will have a capacity of 402 horsepower.

The Company believes that it managed to find the right balance between the electric vehicle, on which people can ride every day, but don't be afraid to pull off the road. He even has many of the fine accessories. Production was supposed to start this year, but the company pushed back the date on the background of the coronavirus. Prices start from 69,000 dollars.

Bollinger B2 — the second in his family

Bollinger B2 — it is a pickup truck version of the first car of the young company from Michigan SUV B1, and it has similar specifications and a similar philosophy. In General, B2 — this is a fairly simple car, even though the price of $ 125,000.

Bollinger B2 — rough, butinteresting.

Bollinger B1 made its debut in 2017 and the company offered a choice of a 60 kWh or 100 kWh, but with the release of version B2 have begun to offer options 120 kWh and 180 kWh. In the end, 120 miles (190 km), which was in the beginning, turned into 200 miles (320 km) run. It is also not enough by modern standards, but this value for the minimum version.

But the rest of the specs are impressive. Power is 614 HP and tow the car to 7,500 lbs (3 400 kg). On Board the machine can take a little more than two and a half tons of cargo.

Initially the car was supposed to appear last year, but now the timeline has shifted and we are already talking about the year 2021.

Nikola Badger — Tesla is, there are Nikola

Nikola is best known for his output on the market of electric vehicles and semi-trailers with fuel cells, but in March of this year the company decided to challenge the market electric pickups. The machine will combine the battery with the system elements with hydrogen fuel to create a very attractive characteristic.

The Company said that the truck should have a peak power in the 906 HP the car can travel 600 miles (960 km), of which 300 miles (480 km) from the battery. The rest of the mileage is provided by the fuel cell system, but the problem is that the infrastructure of fueling systems, the fuel lags behind even the infrastructure of electric vehicle charging. Nikola already said it plans to help solve the problem and build a 700 stations hydrogen fueling in the United States, but despite this, hydrogen is still a long way of development.

This pickup looks interesting.

In addition to great mileage and high power, the machine demonstrates the ability to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds and a maximum weight of towed load is 8 000 pounds (about 3 600 kg). Prices yet, and the car exists only on paper, but in the past year, the company said it was ready to release a prototype within a year. Probably the plans were slightly adjusted due to the situation in the world, but to look at the car it would be very interesting.

Endurance Lordstown — forces GM

Motors Lordstown — new to electric ”the race» pick-up trucks. The company revived after in Lordstown, Ohio, last year and it immediately announced plans for its first model — pickup Endurance.

More details about the car yet, but we know that it will be unusual technology — the truck will have motors in the wheels.

In the best tradition of powerful diesel pickups hood large.

Originally, the company planned to show the finished prototype at the International motor show in 2020 in Detroit, but, unfortunately, the pandemic coronavirus canceled the event and accordingly display. Now showing the machine moved on this summer and it will be in online format.

However, the car already you can pre-order at a price of 52 500 dollars. The first customers should receive their cars in January 2021.

Workhorse W-15 — almost a electric car

Workhorse has been around for several years and her version of the W-15 has attracted a lot of attention when he debuted back in 2016. Specifications W-15 include the lithium-ion battery that provides a range of 80 miles (about 130 km), and then switches on a gasoline engine with larger power reserve.

The Car got into the list due to the fact that this is not a classic hybrid that runs on electricity only a few kilometers. 130 km — it is, of course, ridiculous for . It is assumed that the capacity of the new car will be 450 HP, and a tow car can take 5 000 lb (2 200 kg).

In the future, it was planned to supply the vehicles for the Postal service of the United States.

Atlis XT — affordable yet stylish

Atlis caused a sensation in early 2019, when it announced its electrical pick-up XT. Since then the hype has died down, but the plume of interest remained. The company plans to offer dual version of XT, which can tow up to 35,000 pounds (approximately 15,000 kg). Air suspension provides a ground clearance of 12 inches (30 centimeters).

I did so.

Detailed information about powertrain, but we know at least one battery with a capacity of 125 kWh. Atlis has also said it wants to offer a car with a mileage of 300 miles (480 km), 400 miles (590 km) and 500 miles (800 km). The price should start from $ 45,000, which seems rather ambitious. But the members of the club of fans of the brand will be able to buy a car by subscription for $ 700 a month. This amount will include insurance and car maintenance. Depending on the configuration, the monthly amount may become higher. However, first it is necessary to run the car into production.

Fisker Alaska — pickup, which is not

Perhaps it is a car from the list. About it we don't know anything. The truck appeared only after Fisker CEO Henrik Fisker posted on Twitter a picture of him in February of this year and quickly deleted it. At the time, Fisker said that it cannot confirm the model or name of the car shown on picture, but confirmed that ”indeed working on a modular electric vehicle platform which can underpin several different models available pickups”.

this manufacturer not only has a truck.Although the pickup is not.

Currently, Fisker the company is focused on the production of their Ocean SUV next year. So, most likely, before we see or hear anything about Alaska — when it comes to production and the car will retain its name. Interestingly, there is already a pickup with that name. They don't read Newspapers?

Email , which of these cars you would yourself.

the Pickups of the future can be any kind, but they are sure to be electric.
