Slate is a new American company founded on a disruptive business model of simplifying the manufacturing process and removing unnecessary content to reduce cost and increase reliability.
"The definition of what's affordable is broken," said Slate CEO Chris Barman. "Slate exists to put the power back in the hands of customers who have been ignored by the auto industry. Slate is a radical truck platform so customizable that it can transform from a 2-seat pickup to a 5-seat SUV."
The Slate Truck is a beautifully simplified EV 2-seat pickup, produced in a single configuration from the factory. Approachable and timeless. Steel wheels outside. Crank windows and HVAC knobs inside. Large Frunk along with a spacious cargo area with 1400-lb. payload.
Unlimited personalization, powered by DIY
Slate vehicles are about accessible personalization. Select from over 100 accessories, available individually or bundled, to make a Blank Slate yours - at time of purchase or as your needs change over time.
The truck can be anything - even an SUV
The flat-pack accessory SUV Kit turns the truck into a 5-seat SUV, with a roll cage, airbags, rear seat. Do it yourself or have it done for you.
Bring your own tech
Rather than learn a new interface, use the one you love. Slate introduces the universal phone mount and USB power. Add a dedicated tablet if you want to.
