Today, we're diving into the wild world of electric mini trucks with Doug DeMuro as he reviews the TE MT1, a quirky creation from California-based startup TE. Priced at around $40,000, this pint-sized truck packs a punch with options for single and dual motors, offering up to 350 miles of range and a whopping 500 horsepower. That's enough to propel this mini truck from 0 to 60 in just 4 seconds - a feat that'll leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about small electric vehicles.
But it's not just about power - the TE MT1 brings a unique design to the table, sporting all-terrain tires, 10 inches of ground clearance, and aerodynamic features that set it apart from the crowd. Inside, the interior may be basic but functional, with clever storage solutions like glove boxes, cup holders, and a surprisingly spacious door pocket. And let's not forget the intriguing mix of cloth and cork materials used throughout the cabin, adding a touch of sustainability to this electric marvel.
One of the most interesting aspects of the TE MT1 is its target audience - commercial buyers looking for a versatile workhorse to haul goods or transport workers. TE recognizes this and plans to offer a base model with simpler trim options tailored to these practical needs. However, for those seeking a more premium experience, the MT1 delivers with its unique blend of style, performance, and eco-conscious materials. In a world where electric vehicles are becoming increasingly popular, the TE MT1 stands out as a bold and innovative contender in the mini truck segment.
