(12,660 posts)Not exactly a practical truck for people who need to pile camping stuff up in the back of a bed, pick up a bunch of home repair or renovation items at the hardware store, or want to help friends move for beer and pizza.
Looks like you can only put a single layer of binned or boxed items in the back.
However, it's probably good enough as an IKEA store delivery service vehicle. Or maybe for Instacart or Shipit type deliveries.

There are some key issues that need to prove out, towing, durability, 4WD performance, but once these have been addressed (honestly, its just going to take time to trust the new tech) combustion engines will be in the rear view.

But hey... no one is forcing anyone to buy a car/truck.
