Compact Electric Pickup Goes On Sale In Iowa

Holy ugly!



A small electric pickup truck from Electric Motor Cars has gone on sale in Des Moines, Iowa, at a former Chrysler dealership. The two-seat runabout is based on the Romanian-built Dacia Logan that's sold overseas.

The retail price of the EMC pickup starts at $33,950. It's reported to have up to a 260-mile range and can carry up to one-ton of cargo in its small bed.

Des Moines Motors owner Gene Gabus, who's selling the truck, hopes to market the EMC pickup to businesses, "eco-type people" and "anybody that wants to fight the oil companies."

Yeah it needs somthing.......

Oh well LOL It's a truck and it's earned a place at MTS It needs to win an award for worlds ugliest or worlds smallest truck.

hey... its electric.... the body styling had to match the lack of power it has to have.... and im pretty sure it was meant for squirrel squezers to drive... not people who actually need a box to haul things in.... you know, something big enough that a guy occasionally has to go clean the priuses outta the grill now and then.
