My understanding is they have no plan for manufacturing. Slate is going to deliver at least a few thousand units. They're going to be behind schedule. It's September, they're talking about Q4 2026 deliveries, and not a single truck has rolled off the line. They're touring the country doing press events and demo rides in engineering validation trucks. They'll make it half or maybe a whole model year before folding. permalink fedilink source parent
