That kandi truck is how we want trucks to look👍 , but none of the big boys will bring it. The most truck looking EV is the Rivian.
loved f-100. sorry its not for sale
I like how Ford is making EV converter kits cause the USA automakers need to get on the ball or Ford is going to be taking the market we need to stay #1 with new cars and trucks people won’t like them at first but should warm up to them once the data and YouTube vids are out and they should think about letting EA put them into their games for promotional ads I wonder how long until every gas station gets turned into a charging station they can still get stuff from the stores keep these vids going I really like this stuff
I think that these electric trucks are so ugly. I would never buy one.
Maybe after few years EV's will be standard and usual vehicles.
For seeing that it has a Cadillac escalade ESV Electric like the 2020.
Hey bro. Very cool line up. I really love all the models that where present in this video. Much love ❤. Keep it up bro
