UPDATE from Telo! Good News! https://youtu.be/3Giajb4F3GM
-
As a k-truck owner, small trucks are so useful, I hope these guys succeed
-
The best truck concept I've seen so far. Low to the ground, a low front end for pedestrian safety, decent range, all wheel drive, it can tow a decent weight, and it can fit nicely in my small garage. Can't wait until it's available. Love it!
-
I hope these guys survive, it seems like they have some solid concepts here, and that the market will likely embrace the smaller PU concept if the price point can be kept at their estimates.
-
All desirable things are always two years in the future.
-
Never heard of this company before, but I'm a big fan of EV's and compact trucks, so love it when they merge together. I hope they have "great success" (Borat voice).
-
Love how much you’ve been getting to look behind the scenes in these companies never expected content like this to be regular on this channel 👏
-
Now THIS is a truck I really Like! Make 'em Smaller everyone!
-
Thank you for the Telos update…should look nice in my garage next to my APTERA
-
I love the foldable 3rd row option!! The idea of a removable top is very International Scout-ish. Love it!!!
-
I'm certainly not in the market for one but I really hope they find success. Seeing actually good solutions to the USA's vehicular conundrums is nice
-
Thanks for covering this Drew. This is very nice, I like it very much. I think they’ll get it right by starting small, wish them all the best. 👍
-
Interesting. Canoo is doing something VERY similar and I think they've entered production now, at least for fleet vehicles. Will have to keep an eye on Telo and see if they make it and what the final product looks like.
-
Would love to see a standard cab version to have a longer bed and more work utility. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.
-
Really rooting for the Telo team! They represented themselves well.
-
I think they're a little high on the price, but everything else they're saying sounds like they've really thought this through to get to viability unlike other certain startup EV companies have done lately.
-
Such a cool concept. I'm tired of huge trucks, but having a pickup is still so great for utility.
-
This looks like a compelling product. I am interested to see where it goes.
-
Yeah I really look forward to vehicle like this and canoo and cybertruck that don’t have to adhere to the design constraints of ice vehicle. If I were GM I would be using a similar footprint and bringing back the elcamino.
-
To the makers of Telo. This truck would sell insanely in Europe. Consider a dual launch in Europe and your sales centers in major cities. I know homolgation will be difficult but it would be worth it.
