Jeff Bezos has officially entered the EV space โ€” but not by playing Teslaโ€™s game. His new bet, a startup called Slate Auto, just unveiled a $20,000 electric truck. Itโ€™s stripped down, minimal, and practical. No touchscreen. No chrome. No tech theatrics. Just a single motor, a manual gear shifter, and a design focused on functionality. The truck is built in a repurposed newspaper factory using off-the-shelf parts. Itโ€™s meant to be simple, customizable, and easy to repair โ€” something that appeals to small business owners and first-time EV buyers. Within two weeks, Slate racked up over 100,000 reservations. The entry price? A $50 refundable deposit. This isnโ€™t about EVs as lifestyle statements or luxury badges. Itโ€™s about utility, affordability, and fast production โ€” a very different pitch from what the current market is chasing. The bigger question now: Is this the beginning of a more grounded, practical EV movement โ€” or just a niche alternative in a market still obsessed with premium tech and self-driving dreams?
