Slate Auto Eyes $3,000 High‑Roof Cargo Kit for Compact Electric Pickup
WHY IT MATTERS
Adding a high‑roof cargo kit would broaden the pickup’s appeal to trades, small businesses, and van‑life users, potentially increasing sales and market share for Slate Auto’s entry‑level electric truck.
What happened
Reports indicate that Slate Auto’s $25,000 compact electric pickup could receive a modular high‑roof cargo kit designed for trades, small businesses, and van‑life buyers who need enclosed space. The kit would add $3,000 to the vehicle’s price.
Slate Auto has not yet confirmed the option, leaving the development status uncertain.
If the kit is introduced, it would expand the pickup’s functionality and target market, offering a more versatile solution for users who require both electric performance and cargo protection.
