can only go 25mph, carry 1200lbs in bed, full electric, starts at $33,990.

Wonder what the range is?

It makes sense for the likes of landscapers, et al or short delivery uses.

Seems like an even more expensive UTV. Although maybe comparable to a similarly optioned one

Topping out at 25 MPH is worse than a 50cc moped

Not surprised that they got positive reviews from Electrek's commentors :rolleyes:

I actually like the truck but they really need to bump the top speed to 40mph so contractors can get from one job to another in a reasonable amount of time. Around here residential streets are 25mph and multi-lane roads are 35-45mph. Trying to get everywhere on residential streets would be a nightmare.

Yeah. 25 mph is really slow. Not hard to do 40-45.

I agree with y'all! But I'm guessing they're using a week motor so they don't have to deal with as much heat...

Mav can get up to about 30mph on just electric if the battery is fully charged up. It's kinda fun pushing the limit of electric without pushing so hard the ICE ignites. 🤠

Way too expensive for what it is.  My brother paid around this same amount for his 2020 Ford Ranger XLT Sport 2WD Quad-Cab brand new.

There is no reason in the world why this "thing" should cost more than ten grand, tops.
