In one of the strangest launches we’ve seen in a while, Slate Auto, the reportedly Jeff Bezos-backed electric vehicle startup, unveiled its first EV, the Slate Truck. Notably, the vehicle is capable of a claimed 150 miles (241 km) of range at a starting price of less than $20,000, assuming federal clean vehicle tax credits continue to exist.

Slate's model is charged via a NACS (North American Charging Standard) port, the same as a Tesla and the type of port many mainstream automakers are transitioning to. Using that port, the truck can charge to full overnight on a household outlet or fast-charge to 80 percent when attached to a 120-kilowatt charger, in under 30 minutes.
