The Telo truck is a kei truck-style electric vehicle designed with power and flexibility in mind to help drivers easily maintain their lifestyle on the roadway. The vehicle measures in at about 152-inches in length for a compact appearance on city streets, which also lends impressive capabilities for drivers to easily navigate with ease. The vehicle has two axle motors capable of pumping out a combined 500-horsepower, while the 106kWh battery is rated to deliver up to 350-miles of range per charge.
The Telo truck was designed with the help of industrial designer Yves Béhar to give it a truly stylish appearance and has a modular construction to boot. This includes the option to transform the rear into a third row for passengers. Set to be tested later this year, the vehicle is slated to go into production within three-years.
